Did Dfw to Windhoek last year and if everything works out will be doing Dfw to Johannesburg end of August. Great airline , no problems with firearms. Wouldn’t think Dfw and Houston would be much different. Have already bought tickets so I hope this mess is settled by then.

Had an 8 hr layover in Doha. The wife and I bought entrance to the 1st class lounge both ways so we could eat and shower and nap. Going to Johannesburg we will go thru Doha again but only have a 4 hr layover on the way and 2 hrs coming back.

If the price is not much different, I would suggest going Emirates from IAH to JNB. That flight operates on an A380 from IAH which is a more comfortable plane.

Love the A380! Wish I could fly on one again someday. Emirates now uses 777 from DFW. Only A380 in DFW now is Quantas and that’s the one I was on years ago.

Unfortunately, QANTAS is going to subsitiute a B777 for their A380 from DFW, as traffic has been reduced.

The B777 is a great plane. All of the Delta 777s have had interior upgrades. Flying on one of these to Johannesburg then on to Namibia via South African Airlines.
Next trip I hope to fly Qatar or Emirates.

Hello,
Am I reading your post correctly to say that the Tsavo rifle will be coming out with a composite stock later this year? I ask because I had been looking very hard for a Tsavo, but if there is going to be a composite stock model I will wait for that.
Thank you for your time,
Andrew

Saw your post. Nice. Denver too. Genesee area (just off 70) if ever up this way. Alternatively, do you have a membership at GGC? Whatever, you'll have a wonderful time in Africa. Enjoy.
