It'll cost you. The base fares, look at the base fares and you will see that JNB-SFO and SFO-EU are higher. (JNB-LAX is a pretty reasonable BF). CPT-SFO is even higher. Will be cheaper to just position from/to LAX and JNB. I think your proposed routing will be $3k minimum given the base fares.

I think about the lowest you can go is via LAX...Passenger 1: Adult $1,835.63
Airfare $1,511.00
Taxes & Fees $324.63
