San Francisco (SJC) to Johannesburg (JNB)

Business or pleasure? Either way, you're going to want a great deal on a flight to Johannesburg. Because when you eventually land, you have a city that is waiting to be explored, and that extra cash in your pocket can take your trip from "meh" to amazing. You're in the perfect spot to snatch a killer rate on your upcoming flight from San Francisco. Whether you fancy yourself an airline aficionado or you're new to the jet-setting scene, read on to see how to book a too-good-to-be-true flight.

How can you get a great rate on tickets from SJC to JNB?

Hotwire has been doing this for years, which means getting that great deal on a Johannesburg flight is easy-peasy. You can pocket that extra cash for more than just getting from point A to point B with a little know-how.

Which days of the week are cheapest to fly?

Just like a yogi, it pays to be flexible. Those middle children of the work week, Tuesday and Wednesday, typically have the best rates. Next in line are Thursday and, surprisingly, Saturday. Most people like to fly back from their trip on Sunday so you can save by leaving a day earlier.

What's the Saturday night stay rule?

If you stay through the weekend, generally that return ticket to SJC can be cheaper since you'll be leaving earlier in the week. All those business travelers have less flexible itineraries, so that means savings for you. Of course, we don't want to twist your rubber arm or anything.

What are shoulder seasons?

It's all about going to a place when its weather is at its best. For example, Europe, Hawaii, and Alaska are big hits in the summer. Popular Spring Break destinations are New Orleans, California, and Florida. Feeling the bitter cold? Well, the Caribbean Islands and Mexico can warm you up. Unless you're a ski bum -- then places like Colorado will be your winter wonderland. Who doesn't love some good fall foliage? The Pacific Northwest, Northern California, and New England are popular this time of the year. Flying during less popular periods can mean extra money in your wallet -- yes, please!

Is that the lowest price?

Airline carriers change their rates seemingly by the minute. If you see the price you like, then pick it! Unsurprisingly, you're not the only traveler seeking a stellar deal on a flight from San Francisco to Johannesburg. You could miss out on your chance to get the carrier and the time you like.
