It’s expensive, but it’s cheap
Seychelles + South Africa + Kenya + Ethiopia + South Korea + Macau + Hong Kong + just China (without a visa) for about 107,500 rubles. It sounds like «SKOKA-SKOKA», but if you count and look at the map, it doesn’t seem to be that expensive.
At Aeroflot, for example, only tickets to the Seychelles and back cost 75,000 rubles. Well, or you can calculate it in another way: only South Korea costs 40k for airlines, and South Africa costs 60, which gives the same 100k, but for two trips. And here is one with nice bonuses.
And visas are almost not needed. You can get to Kenya online for $30, to Ethiopia online or on arrival for $80, for South Korea you only need to fill out a simple and inexpensive K-ETA questionnaire here (payment only by foreign card, sorry).
For those who are expensive for 100k, but want to go to Seychelles, there is an alternative option.
Tickets on airline websites or on skyscanner. Well, or on trip.com
Important-1: all flights with luggage!
Important-2: all flights, except the last one, can be moved. Some of them can be discarded altogether.
Step 1: Moscow — Beijing — Macau
We will start a very convenient flight
Step 2: Macau— Hong Kong
From Macau to Hong Kong by ferry. Tickets here, at some Klook or at the seaport (about 2000 rubles)
Step 3: Hong Kong— Seoul
September 11th, for example — with luggage. It’s a little cheaper without luggage.
Step 4: Seoul — Addis Ababa — Johannesburg
Beautiful call to South Africa on Ethiopian Airlines (for example, September 17) — 32,800 rubles
(Russian card is slightly more expensive)
or with a long stop in Ethiopia
Step 5: Johannesburg — Nairobi— Mahe
From South Africa via Kenya we fly to Seychelles — you can take a day connection for 242 euros (23200 rubles)
The Russian card is a little more expensive
Or to stay longer and more expensive.
Step 6: Seychelles — Moscow
Return by direct flight to Moscow with luggage. So far, only on October 2. It may become cheaper closer to departure.
In fact, you can also move the last flight: right now Biblioglobus has a flight on October 5 for 30,000 rubles. And we have an opinion: these tickets should be cheaper.
Is it beautiful? Nicely.
(it’s about like flying back and forth from Moscow to Vladivostok three times)
Alternative option: without unnecessary Macau, Hong Kong, Kenya and South Africa.
Times
From Seoul we fly immediately to Saudi Arabia, there are many dates (do not forget to get an expensive online visa).
And from Saudi Arabia straight to Ethiopia (flying Flynas)
On to Seychelles and home. It will be slightly cheaper than the first option, but without parts of Asia, Africa and with a Saudi visa.
That’s about it.
