Flying from Polokwane. Polokwane International Airport serves Limpopo’s capital — the provincial government seat and the gateway to the northern bushveld, the Waterberg and the Soutpansberg. Most departing passengers are government workers and business travellers. Polokwane is 300 km north of Johannesburg on the N1, so the drive to OR Tambo competes directly with local flights on the Johannesburg corridor.
What you can actually book: Polokwane → Johannesburg → George
No airline flies Polokwane to George non-stop. Every itinerary changes aircraft at Johannesburg, so these are the two legs your booking is built from — compare each one to see where the money actually goes.
The live search above prices the full connecting itinerary in one booking, which is usually cheaper and protects you if the first leg runs late. Comparing the legs separately is worth doing when one of them is on sale — but a self-booked connection carries no protection if you miss the second flight.
