Highlights
Cape Town is calling: Now’s your chance to be on our inaugural flight.
This December, United® will become the only airline with nonstop service to Cape Town from New York/Newark — and you and a guest have an opportunity to be on the first-ever flight in United Polaris® business class. Cape Town is filled with a unique blend of cultures and natural wonders, offering stunning views from sea to sky. Known as Africa’s “Mother City,” it sits at the feet of the iconic Table Mountain, providing a mesmerizing backdrop.
You and your guest will experience this city in luxury with five-star accommodations at One&Only Cape Town4. There’s so much to do in this small, but mighty city. Throughout the experience, we'll be escorting you through Cape Town to see the sites, partake in wine tastings and vineyard tours, dine at fabulous restaurants and more. At the end of the week, you'll be escorted to Aquila Private Game Reserves for the chance of a lifetime to go on a South African safari where you will come face-to-face with the “Big Five” game animals.*
Bid now for your chance at a true African adventure and cross Cape Town off your bucket list.
