Flights to get you there
United flies Newark to Cape Town nonstop; from JFK, Delta via Atlanta or the Gulf and European carriers connect. Johannesburg is a short hop away.
- V&A Waterfront terminal
- Ships berth at the Cape Town Cruise Terminal at the V&A Waterfront, about 20–30 minutes from Cape Town airport (CPT), longer at rush hour.
- Arrive a day early
- Long-haul flights from North America land after a night in the air. Arrive the day before embarkation: it absorbs a delay and gives you a full night’s sleep before sailing.
