South Africa: Airports


Often times when you’re flying into a major city, it’s a good idea to look at airports other than the main airport for that city in case one of the smaller area airports has cheaper flights. Although it isn’t always the case, but it’s almost always worth looking!

How to Fly to Johannesburg
Johannesburg is South Africa’s biggest city, so it’s not surprising that it has two airports to choose from. The primary airport (and the busiest in South Africa) is O.R. Tambo International Airport and it’s a hub for South African Airways. The other airport serving Johannesburg is Lanseria Airport.

How to Fly to Cape Town
Cape Town has South Africa’s second-busiest airport, Cape Town International Airport , which is a hub for South African Airways. Other domestic airlines serving Cape Town include South African Express, South African Airlink, and Comair - and other budget airlines to look at to reach Cape Town are Air Berlin, TUIfly, kulula, 1time, and Mango.

How to Fly to Durban
Durban’s international airport, cleverly called Durban International Airport, is the 3rd busiest behind Johannesburg and Cape Town but gets far less traffic than either of those two. Some of the airlines serving Durban are South African Express, South African Airlink, Comair, kulula, 1time, Mango, British Airways, and Emirates.

How to Fly to Port Elizabeth
The coastal city of Port Elizabeth has its own (small) airport - Port Elizabeth Airport (airport code PLZ). Airlines serving Port Elizabeth are 1time, Airlink Airlines, kulula, South African Airways, South African Express, and Comair.
