I’m having trouble finding dates that work. Has anyone secured this? What dates did you use? Looking for around Dec 15-30.
Janie,
I’m not seeing any dates in the latter half of December work. Looks like you can get it to approach $400 r/t (and price out on Orbitz) for departures in the last week of November (cheapest for departures on Thanksgiving Day) and returns in the first and second weeks of December.
Thank you! Unfortunately that won’t work for my calendar. What a good deal– and already planning a trip to NBO at Christmastime. Oh well! Thanks for your help 🙂
Booked 4 tix to JNB from JFK for $494 rt each
Feb 2016
2x to JNB for $494 RT in Feb 2016!
I just snagged JFK to Nairobi in February for $309 RT for 14 days!!
annnnnd it wasn’t real. The confirmation was never sent. Still trying to work on a $500 fare during Feb for similar time frame.
I did the opposite, @Cruisingflying4life!
4 people JFK – JNB $494 each in Feb 2016
Pretty sure the deal is dead now….all pricing shows up as $1000+ on ITA
Unfortunately, the fares on ITA Matrix for JFK-JNB : lowest fare is around 595$ .. still on Jet Airways.
Anyone see anything to either JNB or Nairobi for any dates in Jan 2016?

Booked and received confirmation/eticket for Nov 26-Dec 4 for two people
Most of the good dates are gone, but it’s still there just play around with the dates.
^Forgot to mention, I got the two tickets for $836 total on Orbitz!
I’m kicking myself.. I was going to buy it, and I found but was waiting to do it with my friend and I MISSED OUT! I’m so upset with myself.
