When you get a price, its in NZ dollars, so go to xe.com for an exchange rate.I just priced out JFK-JNB Feb 15-22, 2011 and it came to 930 NZ Dollars, which equals $701. WOW. I have never seen a fare this low to JNB, so book ASAP if you want to go. Since South African Airways is a Star Alliance airline, these trips will earn you roughly 15,000 EQMs on Continental, 10,500 EQMs on United and around 8,000 US Airways.
