For the international traveler, some good fall airfares for US - South Africa travel. You must book by Friday night. Travel dates in November and December. Travel is on Star Alliance member, South African Airways. Starting at $798 roundtrip New York to Johannesburg, plus taxes, it's a pretty good deal.

The headline says you must book by October 9, but it's actually this Friday, October 17 for a great deal to Hawaii (starting at $350 roundtrip).
