Default Day flights from Europe to South Africa

Iīm one of those travellers who think that if you pay for a ticket you have a right to see something. Thatīs why I always book a window seat.

Now, I thought one of my next travels would be to South Africa. Unfortunately all flights depart late in the afternoon in Europe and arrive early in the morning in South Africa. This is extremely annoying since I canīt see anything of Africa then.

I know this schedule is perfect for business people but nor for me.

So my question is: Is there any day flight down under? I didnīt find one in the search engines but they are not always precise.

Cool

I used to always insist on the window seat, but came to my senses on my recent trip to Hong Kong (from SFO). For 14 + hours, I can't stand having to crawl over two people every time I want to get up (which is quite a lot on a flight like that). A window seat is especially worthless on a flight in which 90% is water anyway.

If I were in first class, or in an exit row, it would be a different story.
