Most flights into Victoria Falls, Zimbabwe or Livingstone, Zambia go via Johannesburg, South Africa (Jo'burg), the central hub of Southern Africa.
There are several routes into Vic Falls. Booking your trip in several legs may prove to be cheaper than just booking a direct flight with one carrier all the way through to your final destination. For example booking your first flight to London on Virgin Airlines then booking your second flight to Johannesburg on British Airlines may have its advantages!
West Coast travelers may want to make their way to the East Coast (NYC, Wash. D.C., Atlanta) because some flights from the East Coast go directly to Africa, avoiding a stopover in Europe and reducing your travel time by about 7 to 9 hours.
A decent airfare from San Francisco (SFO) to Johannesburg (JNB) would be between $1,500 to $2,200 round trip.
