It seems odd that you didn't fly directly to Cape Town.
Do you know of a direct SFO-CPT, or LAX-CPT flight?
Not personally .... but this is what Google tells me:-

Nothing there is a direct SFO-CPT flight.
My quick scan was obviously inadequate. :-(
There are direct USA-South Africa flights from JFK, Atlanta, Houston, and
D.C. to Johannesburg(JNB), not to CPT.
Google told me this, too:-

...and how was that any different to your first Google search?
It isn't.
Sadly, I posted the same link. I'd intended to post THIS one:

The last thing I want to do is to connect between JNB and CPT, if I don’t
need to.
Was it REALLY cheaper to fly via Europe?
Actually, the route I flew with KLM was the most cost effective for cash,
and seat exhaustion.
I have little doubt you did lots of research.
Even Google, though, didn't help explain "seat exhaustion". Whatever did
you mean?!!
Seat exhaustion means having your butt in a seat for 10+ hours from
SFO-AMS, and 11+ hours from AMS-CPT.
OK - thanks. The longest flight I've ever had took 56 hours (London to
Sydney). We arrived on the aircraft which had departed from Heathrow 24
hours after ours had departed - and that was late too!
If I could have afforded it, I would have chartered an executive jet.
Of course! :-)
Whilst many will no doubt feel I don't deserve it, I value your
response, Savageduck. Thank you.
