When is the best time to book the cheapest flights to Durban?
The cheapest time of the year in Durban is from December to February. Durban is perhaps one of the few cities in Africa that are comparatively cheaper over the Christmas season. When the summer season returns to Durban in December, it also brings along rain clouds. Even though the highest temperature during this time is 30°C, the overcast weather of Durban keeps you always wondering when it’s going to rain. However, for the traveller on a budget visiting Durban during this time can be a godsend. With fewer tourists vying for hotel rooms and airline seats, the prices come down drastically. It rains about seven to eight days in the entire month, but the views are impressive after the showers pack an umbrella.
