We are unable to provide flight quotes more than 11 months in advance of travel. The majority of participants will be departing from the following airports, listed in order of priority:

Atlanta (shortest flight time)

Dulles – Washington, D.C.

In addition to your international flight to Johannesburg, South Africa, you will also need to book a separate flight from Johannesburg to Cape Town, South Africa and then to Zimbabwe.
