Kulula is re-introducing its Johannesburg – East London route from 4 September 2021 and will now offer two weekly flights between the two South African cities. The route was cancelled when coronavirus hit in 2020 and demand to travel dropped.
Customers will now have the option to book flights between Johannesburg and East London on Saturdays or Sundays.
Brian Kitchin, Executive Head of Sales and Marketing at kulula.com says: “We have listened to our customers who have been eagerly waiting for us to re-introduce flights to East London. We are pleased to now be able to offer travellers more choice when travelling to and from the beautiful Eastern Cape.”
“The timing could not have been more perfect, as we celebrate Tourism Month in September. As this year’s United Nations World Tourism Organisation (UNWTO) theme for World Tourism Day Celebrations indicates – Tourism for inclusive growth -, we believe by re-introducing kulula.com flights on the East London route will help rejuvenate domestic tourism to this region.”
The airline also offers three cheaper options for travellers.
- Fly Light: A hop-on, hop-off option for those with only cabin bags offering the best possible fares. A change of booking fee of R299 applies.
- Pack & Go: An all-round option to suit most traveller’s needs including one piece of checked luggage weighing up to 20kg and two free booking changes.
- Fully Loaded: A fully flexible option allowing unlimited booking changes, two checked bags and Q-Jump to speed-up check-in procedures.
