The carriers to test are Ethiopian Airlines, Emirates, Qatar Airways, British Airways, KLM, Air France, Turkish Airlines and Air Europa, and each one can sell a different balance of fare, baggage and timing.

Cape Town-Madrid works best when the month, weekday and landing time are considered together. November gives the fare search more room; July-August and December removes that room first from the most convenient flights.

For short trips, the outbound timing is usually the detail to protect.
