South African Airways (SAA) has launched the “Fares So Low, You Gotta Go” promotion with fares starting at $899 round-trip from New York-JFK Airport and Washington, DC-Dulles Airport to Johannesburg, South Africa. The fares, which include taxes and fees, are available for purchase through August 17 for travel November 1-30, 2014.

“These are some of our lowest fares of the year and are only available for a short time for travel in November, which is springtime in South Africa and a great time to visit and experience Johannesburg and its many cosmopolitan activities,” said Marc Cavaliere, executive vice president, North America for South African Airways. “In addition to these low fares, you’re getting the best value for the dollar, with daily nonstop service from New York and daily direct service from Washington, DC, two free checked bags, no charge for advance seat assignments, on-demand entertainment at every seat, complimentary meals, snacks and award-winning South African wines. There is no better or more affordable way to fly to South Africa and explore the African continent.”

Other fares are also available to Johannesburg and many destinations throughout SAA’s extensive route network on the African continent for travel periods throughout the Fall.
