Peak season:
December through to February tends to be the warmest months of the year and with it, tends to be the busiest. A lot of tourists flock to enjoy the warmer weather which can increase the price of flights to Bloemfontein. There is also the annual rose festival which takes place around late October time. Spring and autumn both have their benefits too, the temperatures are still warm but there are fewer tourists around giving you a better chance to secure cheap flights to Bloemfontein. For spring aim to visit between late September and early December and for autumn book your flights for around February to April.
Off season:
Cheap flights to Bloemfontein can be found during the winter months although you might only end up saving R100. Tourists still visit during the winter as it is cooler and more tolerable. There is also a much lower chance of rain too which is a bonus.
