Jet Airways, India's premier international airline, introduced exclusive South African holiday packages through JetEscapes for the discerning Indian traveler. Designed to provide an enchanting South African travel experience, the JetEscapes packages will coincide with the airline's launch of a daily non-stop service to Johannesburg commencing on April 14, 2010. Now travellers in India will for the first time be able to book holidays to South Africa through these JetEscapes packages. South Africa is considered the tenth most-favoured destination in the world as it offers the greatest variety of attractions. Considered the Adventure Capital of the World, South Africa is equally well known for its breath-taking scenic beauty, green valleys, historic towns, celebrity beaches as also award-winning wines and cuisine. The JetEscapes ‘South African Escapes', ‘SunCity Getaway' and ‘Kruger Getaway' packages have been priced competitively, and will offer travellers  distinctly unique South African travel experiences. The SunCity Resort is internationally renowned as Africa's premier holiday resort destination, and is also aptly named "Africa's Kingdom of Pleasure" as it offers travellers a myriad entertainment and relaxation opportunities, as well as enough attractions and activities to keep the entire family busy.

The Kruger National Park, on the other hand, will offer visitors the quintessential African safari and gaming reserve experience, allowing tourists to track and observe African wildlife in their natural habitat. Mr. Sudheer Raghavan, Chief Commercial Officer, Jet Airways, said, "The introduction of our new direct daily service to Johannesburg gives us the opportunity to offer our discerning guests a refreshing travel experience. Through JetEscapes, we aim to make travel for our guests joyful and pleasurable. We are confident that our packages to South Africa will prove to be extremely popular with travellers." The exclusive South African holiday packages would also find favour with Indian tourists as the weather in the Rainbow Nation would be cooler during its autumn and winter months, proving the most attractive summer getaways from India's sweltering heat. The exclusive JetEscapes ‘South African Escapes' package for eight days/seven nights will enable guests to see Johannesburg - The City of Gold, SunCity - South Africa's internationally acclaimed resort destination, experience one of the South African capital cities of Pretoria and track the big-five at the Kruger National Park making for a true flavour of the Rainbow Nation - TravelDailyNews
