Seasonal Travel Advice

Durban enjoys a warm climate throughout the year, making it a popular destination for both business and leisure travellers. Air travel demand is highest during the December and January summer holidays, Easter, and South African school holiday periods, when flights and accommodation often sell out well in advance. If you’re travelling during these busy periods, booking your flight several weeks or months ahead can help you find better prices and more flight choices. Travelling during quieter months such as February, May and September often provides better value on many domestic and international routes. When travelling to King Shaka International Airport, allow additional time during weekday rush hours. Traffic is typically busiest between 6:30 AM and 9:00 AM and 3:30 PM and 6:30 PM, particularly on the N2 and surrounding roads. Summer holiday traffic can also increase journey times, especially for travellers coming from Durban’s beachfront, Umhlanga or the South Coast. For international flights, arriving at the airport at least three hours before departure is recommended. For domestic flights, arriving two hours before departure usually provides sufficient time for check-in, baggage drop and security screening.
