Operating from Cape Winelands Airport, with options to service Cape Town International (subject to a surcharge), Air du Cap is set to revolutionize regional air travel with its tailored approach and unbeatable pricing.

Affordable Charter Flights for Regional Travel

Air du Cap’s flagship aircraft, a pristine Beechcraft Baron 58, combines luxury and practicality. This twin-engine plane is designed for comfort, featuring hand-stitched leather club seating, air conditioning, and Bose Bluetooth noise-cancelling headsets. It seats up to five passengers, and here’s the kicker: the price is for the whole aircraft, not per passenger. That means groups can travel in style and split the cost for maximum affordability.

For example, a charter flight from Cape Town to Plettenberg Bay—a route no longer served by larger commercial airlines due to Plettenberg Bay Airport’s recent downgrade—is available for just R31,000. This is a far cry from the R100,000 charged by competitors flying larger aircraft like the King Air or PC12.

With Air du Cap, you get the right aircraft for the mission at a price that makes sense.

Filling the Gap Left by Commercial Airlines

Plettenberg Bay Airport’s downgrade has left a void in the regional travel market, with airlines like CemAir unable to operate there until at least June 2025. Air du Cap steps in to fill this gap, ensuring travellers can still access this popular destination—and many others—with ease and efficiency.

“We believe there is a market for a charter service that offers value without compromising on quality,” said an Air du Cap spokesperson. “Our Beechcraft Baron 58 is perfectly suited for short regional hops, offering a level of luxury and exclusivity at a fraction of the cost of larger aircraft.”

Beyond Plettenberg Bay — Endless Options

While Plettenberg Bay is a key destination, Air du Cap’s reach extends across the Western, Eastern, and Northern Cape. Their online instant booking engine allows travellers to explore various destinations and price points.

For those with more unique travel needs, custom charters are also available, and Air du Cap even offers a service that will take your vehicle to your destination, saving you on rentals and ensuring your family car is available when you disembark from your flight.

“We could offer flights to Johannesburg or the Kruger National Park,” the spokesperson added. “But for now, we’re focusing on regional routes where our aircraft truly shines. These trips take less time, have fewer limitations, and make more sense for our customers.”

Unique Experiences and Partnerships

Air du Cap isn’t just about point-to-point travel. Starting next week, they will collaborate with the iconic Drostdy Hotel in Graaff-Reinet to offer exclusive 3+ day package tours.

These packages will include flights, luxury accommodations, spa treatments, game drives, and more. Perfect for couples or small groups, these all-inclusive experiences promise a seamless blend of convenience and adventure.

A New Era of Regional Air Travel

Air du Cap’s innovative approach combines the best of private charter convenience with commercial affordability. Each passenger receives a complimentary Melvill & Moon amenity bag, along with snacks and drinks, ensuring every journey is as enjoyable as the destination.

In addition to all the goodies for their human passengers, Air du Cap has partnered with luxury pet accessory brand Chommies so that every furry traveller will receive a complimentary Air du Cap leash.

With their focus on quality, affordability, and customer experience, Air du Cap is poised to transform how South Africans travel regionally. Whether you’re planning a quick business trip, a family getaway, or an unforgettable adventure, Air du Cap offers the perfect solution.
