Vancouver to Kenya, South Africa, Mauritius (and London) - $861 to $1169 CAD roundtrip including taxes [Long Layovers]
12
November
British Airways has dropped the price of their flights from Vancouver to Nairobi, Kenya and Johannesburg, South Africa down to between $861 and $1028 CAD roundtrip including taxes.
The flights have 1 stop in London Heathrow each way.
The layovers are long in both directions, ranging from 6 to 19 hours.
Although overall the total travel time isn't *drastically* longer than the fastest flights, particularly to Johannesburg.
You can also find flights from Vancouver to Mauritius (the beautiful island country East of Madagascar) for $1169 CAD roundtrip. But the flights have an airport change in London in both directions. On the way there you don't have a ton of time to get from Heathrow to Gatwick. It would be tight.
KLM is also showing a few flights to Cape Town, South Africa via Amsterdam for $1118 to $1155 roundtrip (there is an 11-15 hour layover in Paris or Amsterdam on the way back).
Can I extend the layover in London?
See below.
