Various international airlines offer flights to South Africa. Some airlines fly directly to Cape Town, whereas delegates using airlines which do not offer this service, will have to fly to Johannesburg and then take a domestic flight to Cape Town.

Most of the major international airlines offer flights to South Africa with Johannesburg International Airport and Cape Town International Airport being the primary destinations. Connecting flights to other cities are widely available on domestic carriers. Listed below are some of the major airlines which currently offer flights to South Africa.

Delegates can book a shuttle service from the airport to one of the hotels on the list (see “Accommodation”) when they do their accommodation booking. The price is R 280.00 for a single person plus R 25.00 for an additional passenger, should they travel together. Payment for the shuttle service should be done directly with the driver.

There are a number of airlines which offer flights between the main South African cities, as well as routes to most of the smaller cities. Each of the airlines offer varying prices and special offers which are largely dependent on the day of the week and time of day of the flight. You should be able to find a suitable flight and time from amongst the six providers.

There are several accredited Taxi operators at the Cape Town International Airport. You can expect to pay between R500 - R600 for a Taxi trip from the airport to the CTICC precinct.

All major international car hire companies are represented in South Africa. Recognised credit cards may be used for payment. It is advised that you hire a car through your local travel agent, since there are special packages available for tourists from foreign countries that cannot be obtained if you rent within South Africa.

Should you be using you own transport, parking facilities are available at all the hotels at an additional cost. Parking facilities are available at the CTICC. Delegates can either choose to pay per day depending on the number of hours the parking is used, or they can opt for a multi-access parking ticket at R40.00 per day. Please fill in this option on your registration form if you want to make use of the service.

Delegates are encouraged to take the opportunity to explore some of the interesting destinations in South Africa while visiting this exciting country. A tour operator will be appointed and details will be given on this page soon.

Excursions will be offered for accompanying persons during the INORMS 2010 conference. A representative of the tour operator will be present at the registration desk during registration on 11 April 2010 to book activities for accompanying persons.
