    Layovers

    I’m not 100% sure but you can check online to see which planes fly the routes for each airline and then find the seat layout. As for a row of 2, you might have to buy seats more expensive than economy regardless of airline (based on my somewhat limited intl flying experience…)

    Layovers

    I’d sooner fly to Atlanta a day early and stay in a hotel than risk missing the 1 flight to JNB a day and losing a day of the trip. For my trip in 2023 I’ll be driving 5 hours to Atlanta to avoid a connection (I’ve been screwed over by airlines too many times to count)

    Qatar Resumes Namibia Flights

    Next trip, I’ll go ATL - JNB… we didn’t fly with rifles but there were a lot of hunters on the flight, none mentioned any issues with their rifles. Personally I’d take a straight 15 hour flight from atl or Newark over a 9 hour flight plus an 11 hour flight. Just my thoughts.

    Canceled flight / When was it booked?

    Good plan… thats what I did on last trip. 12 hour layover in Frankfurt, got a hotel and a hot meal. That and a cold beer really makes it suck less.

    Canceled flight / When was it booked?

    It’s just luck of the draw. Had a Delta flight for a work trip this week cancelled 20 minutes before boarding time with the plane at the gate… then 2 people at the help kiosks to handle rescheduling 300 people. Good luck.

    Qatar Resumes Namibia Flights

    I just flew the Frankfurt to Windhoek route. It’s actually operated by EuroWings under the Lufthansa name. Not sure if that changes your plan, but the EuroWings plane was packed full of seats. The premium there made coach on the United flight seem like first class… just a warning.

    Buffalo Question…

    I’ve considered them, but the prices I’m seeing seem much higher than Mozambique. Don’t mind paying for quality though…

    Buffalo Question…

    Hello there, first of all I’d like to thank everyone here for all of the information you’ve provided on this website. I recently returned from my first trip to africa for plains game and have been obsessed with returning since my flight left… I would like to go for buffalo next and wanted to ask...
