About the Atlanta to Johannesburg route

Atlanta to Johannesburg is one of the longest nonstops from the US, flown by Delta, and it is also the start of most safari trips. The nonstop saves half a day; the connections through the Gulf or Europe are often cheaper and let you break the journey. An agent prices both, and can add the onward flight to Cape Town, Kruger or Victoria Falls on the same ticket.

Add the safari leg on one ticket
Johannesburg to Kruger, Cape Town or Victoria Falls can be priced on the same ticket, which protects the connection if the long flight is late.
Premium cabins on a 15-hour flight
This is a route where premium economy earns its fare. Ask the agent to quote it next to economy.
