Is there a way to travel to South America via Africa?
The Independent
|July 08, 2025
QI travelled to South America fairly frequently in the 2010s, usually changing planes in Madrid or using the Avianca nonstop from London Heathrow to Bogota. For my first post-Covid visit I'm interested in something a bit different: travelling via Africa or the Atlantic islands. What are the options?
A Hundreds of daily flights link Europe, the US and Canada across the North Atlantic. But precious few cross the South Atlantic between Africa and Latin America. I can muster only four - all of them heading from Africa to the Brazilian city of Sao Paulo, which is the main aviation hub in South America.
