International Flights to Cape Town
As South Africa’s second-largest airport, Cape Town International Airport welcomes millions of passengers each year, many of whom have traveled from distant lands to enjoy the beauty of the Mother City and the Western Cape. Bearing in mind that Cape Town International Airport is likely to be the first contact that many international tourists will have with South Africa en route to exploring the wonders of the Western Cape, Airports Company South Africa (ACSA) strives to maintain high standards, providing visitors with all the amenities one would expect at a world-class airport.
Airport Stats & Location
Located just 22 kilometers from the Cape Town city center, the airport handled over 7.2 million passengers in 2007 on more than 60,000 flights. With continuous development and modernization, projections aimed for 14 million passengers by 2015.
This growth was bolstered by Cape Town’s status as a host city during the 2010 FIFA World Cup, where the airport successfully managed a surge in passenger traffic. Today, it remains a reliable and efficient hub for travelers arriving in the Western Cape.

- Skytrax Best Airport in Africa (2005)
