Air travel in South Africa is no longer dominated by South African Airways, maybe at one time it was but not anymore. In the last few years a few airlines have joined the market and made things much eaiser. This has increased the competition and increased competition is always good for the customers. When the airline are competin for passengers the fares are guaranteed to come down.
So your other options now besides SAA are ‘1 Time, Mango and Kulula Airlines. Comapred to most other means of making a booking, making an online reservation is the cheapest. So if you want a discounted rate then you can always book your tickets over the net.
Depending on the time of the year and the day of the week the prices of air tickets will always vary. So you will find that traveling during the week days of Monday and Thursday will mean lower or discounted fares. The other times are referered to as peak periods where most people want to travel and passengers end up being the ones competing for seats..
Most airlines have since developed what is called an e-ticket. Since these e-tickets save the airline lots of money in terms of stationery and printing; using them will get you a lower rate on your airfare and the nice thing about them is that they do not get lost.
So you can access the sites of these airlines directly and compare prices and departure times but this will no doubt take you a lot of time. There are sites that have collective information on all the flights within and around the country. You just fill the relevant details concerning your destination and dates and it will give you a list of available flights during that period.
