Vancouver to Kenya, South Africa, Mauritius (and London) - $861 to $1169 CAD roundtrip including taxes [Long Layovers]
3
December
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.
British Airways is showing a few flights to Cape Town, South Africa via London for $919 roundtrip, which is a new record for the cheapest ever flights between YVR and Cape Town, a record that has stood since 2015 ($981 roundtrip). Dates to try: Jan 19, 21, 24, 25, 26, 27 to Jan 27, 28, 29, Feb 2, 4, 11, 18.
Can I extend the layover in London?
