Destinations

Whether you’re off for a day trip to Nelspruit, or a weekend to the Natal Midlands – we’ve got you covered.

Charter & Scenic

Our primary charter aircraft is the Beechcraft Baron 58, fitted with stitched leather seating, full air conditioning, high-speed device charging, Bose noise-canceling Bluetooth headphones, Wi-Fi, sophisticated IFR avionics and gleaming exterior. 

Then we have the Cessna 182 also available for charter, but used primarily for scenic experiences. From G&Ts in the middle of the desert, to a quick seafood feast in Saldanha, we offer more than just beautiful trips around Cape Point.

And whilst the ‘Out of Africa’ romance of a single prop airplane flying over Africa does hark back to a bygone era, you can be sure the levels of safety and comfort are very much up to date in our Cessna 182 – equipped with modern avionics, portable air conditioning and Melvill & Moon interior.    

On-board catering and refreshments come as standard, with transfers to and from the airfield also available.

We operate on very short notice, so get in touch the next time you’re dreading that 6+ hour drive surrounded by trucks and dangerous drivers overtaking at 180km/h in the opposite direction.

Maybe now you can do just two nights at that bush lodge or Perfect Hideaways property that was too far to justify the drive?

Take back your time – fly Air du Cap.

It Turns Out You CAN Fly Private

Just because you’re paying substantially less than traditional charters, doesn't mean your comfort and safety should be compromised.

As part of the du Cap Collection, Air du Cap understands service and comfort. After all, the journey should be just as special as the destination.

Air du Cap operates from Grand Central Airport in Midrand, and the Cape Winelands airport in Cape Town, just off the N1 outside Stellenbosch. We have a departure lounge, with snacks and refreshments, leading directly to your aircraft, with charter flights enjoying pre-start air conditioning.

You are more than welcome to use Lanseria, OR Tambo, Cape Town International, Stellenbosch or any other airport in South Africa. See our instant booking engine at book.airducap.com

On-board catering, refreshments, and transfers to and from the airfield departure lounge are available as standard.

Experiences

Air du Cap offers boutique charter and bespoke experiences, with attention to detail and safety. G&Ts in the desert, whale spotting in Hermanus, or engagement flights over beaches with ‘will you marry me’ pre-written in the sand beneath - there is no limit to what we can do for you.

Lunch at the Deck in Plett

Pint of prawns, anyone? Depart Cape Winelands’ airport in the morning and return in the afternoon after taking in a full lunch at the famous Deck or Enrico’s around the corner in Keurbooms.
