Methodology

TravelOffice stores daily fare observations for selected South African domestic routes. For each route and day, the system records observed low and median fares. This report aggregates those route-level medians to describe the market we actually tracked during September 2026.

Coverage is not identical on every route or every day. We do not fill missing observations with invented prices. That means this report is best used as a transparent market signal rather than an estimate of every ticket sold in South Africa.
