Talk:Airlines in Africa

Hi, please do not add a template, except you will add some facts. Will return to work tommorow... (WT-en) Felix


 * I think this is much too narrow for a travel topic -- why not just put this under South Africa#Get around#By plane? But Discount airlines in Africa is waiting to be written... (WT-en) Jpatokal 20:04, 19 Apr 2005 (EDT)


 * Wanted to write it in the South Africa page, but it seemed so much to me, if I do it in all detail. It would easily fill the whole page ;-) So I thought it is better to start a new page. (WT-en) Felix (I will work further here, so we can still transfer it to the South Africa page and delete the topic again)
 * There is still much more to come...


 * What about making it "Air travel in Southern Africa"??

Maybe add something about JNB it is the biggest airport
 * Please do so, as I don't have much time at the moment. User:(WT-en) Fluglotse2000«Felix

Roll into South Africa?
Bump. This has been around for a year and I don't really see it going anywhere -- would suggest incorporating this into South Africa and the appropriate cities. (WT-en) Jpatokal 18:14, 20 June 2006 (EDT)


 * Having airport information here should be moved to the destination guides. --(WT-en) inas 22:29, 18 June 2009 (EDT)


 * Ok, lets do it then! --(WT-en) Babbelas 06:09, 19 June 2009 (EDT)


 * Doing it now, 7 years later! --Nick (talk) 22:22, 5 May 2013 (UTC)

I cut the following as it doesn't really seem to fit any where and is probably very outdated:

National
There are multiple daily flights to all the major airports within the country. Contact any of the airlines for details. The low cost airlines (1 Time, Kulula , Mango ) are usually the cheapest and prices can be compared online. It is also worth comparing with the SAA rates as they usually have online specials which are very reasonable. --Nick (talk) 23:05, 5 May 2013 (UTC)

Merge to Flying
By placing the template on this page I am fulfilling what was discussed and agreed at Talk:Flying. Please do discuss that there, if you want to, to keep the discussion in one place. Let me also explain that I find very little if anything worth merging into Flying. Feel free to propose merging selected content into other articles. Otherwise, the merger would constitute merely turning this article into a redirect to Flying. PrinceGloria (talk) 01:19, 30 June 2013 (UTC)

Are there actual reasons not to delete this?
I mean apart from the debate now going on at https://en.wikivoyage.org/w/index.php?title=Wikivoyage_talk:Deletion_policy&curid=69601&diff=3158173&oldid=3158169#Airline_redirects what is/are the reasons this page is still a redirect to Flying? Does it have to be kept for attribution? Hobbitschuster (talk) 18:12, 27 February 2017 (UTC)
