Why fool with London? Go from Denver to Atlanta and then non-stop on Delta to J'burg.
The Delta ATL to JNB flight costs over twice what the gulf states airlines cost, at least for business class and almost as much difference for coach. ATL-Doha-JNB on Qatar airways takes about 26 hours outbound and 25 hours return. Wife and I flew this in November. 2 business tickets were $8600 versus 1 business ticket on Delta. Took approx 8 hours more but to save over $8000, I figured it was worth it. And you simply can’t compare Delta to either Qatar Airways or Emirates. Chalk and cheese....
