Norse will offer three flights a week from 28 October, with basic economy fares from £499 return and Norse Premium seats from £1,199.
Flight will depart Gatwick on Monday, Wednesday, and Saturday at 20.00, arriving at 09.30. Inbound flights will leave Cape Town at 11.45 and arrive at Gatwick at 21.35.
Norse’s arrival on the route takes advantage of the lack of South African Airways’ presence in the UK and replaces the seasonal capacity previously offered by Thomas Cook Airlines. Currently, only British Airways and Virgin Atlantic fly to Cape Town, both from Heathrow. BA offered the route from Gatwick pre-pandemic.
