What direct flights connect Brazil or Argentina to South Africa?

Question

I'm curious, what airlines offer direct flights between South America and Africa and what cities do they connect?

Answer 1

I don't believe a definite list of flights exist, but here's what I found after a fairly exhaustive search.

• Buenos Aires, Argentina to Cape Town, South Africa on Malaysia Airlines
• Buenos Aires, Argentina to Johannesburg, South Africa on South African Airways
• Sao Paulo, Brazil to Luanda, Angola on TAAG Angola Airlines
• Sao Paulo, Brazil to Johannesburg, South Africa on South African Airways
• Rio de Janeiro, Brazil to Luanda, Angola on TAAG Angola Airlines
• Fortaleza, Brazil to Praia, Cape Verde on TACV

Answer 2

1. Find a busy city in South America, say São Paulo
2. Find the web site of its airport: Infraero (all brazilian airports)
3. Look for a flight from São Paulo on an african company: Consulte seu voo, say South African Airways
4. And you can find direct flights to Johannesburg.

Another way would be to check national airline companies of major destinations: Cairo, Rio de Janeiro, Nairobi, Buenos Aires, ...

I am not aware of a method for finding all direct flights from one continent to another.
