Carol,

48 hrs? It took us 21 hrs to get to Cape Town from Rochester NY. Rochester to Detroit, to Amsterdam to Cape Town. Then about an hour until we were at our hotel. It was a nice flight, read and napped a lot. Sorry to hear yours was bad. The wife is going out again in September to sail our new catamaran back to Tortola with the delivery skipper. She may do the direct flight out of Atlanta (South African Air) That's only 15.5 hrs non stop. And I thought 11 hrs in the air at one time was a long time. I never knew plains can stay up that long.

Enjoy Africa, We loved it there.
