Hosea Kutako International Airport (HKIA) is
situated 45km from the Capital city of Namibia, Windhoek. It is
the flagship of NAC (Namibia Airport Company), being the only
international airport in Namibia. Its home carrier Air Namibia
connects the country with South Africa, Angola, Great Britain
and Germany and few regional airlines supply some further routes
to surrounding countries. General aviation and domestic Air Namibia
flights are mostly operated out of Eros Airport, which is only
5km from Windhoek.
Inside the terminal are the usual
shops and a restaurant (40 seats). A tourist information is located
in the Arrivals Hall, which is also ideal for those wanting to
fetch someone from the airport. The airport's ATM's do accept
VISA and Mastercard and only give Namibia Dollar (N$) that are
equal to South African Rand (ZAR).
The airside of the terminal boost
a VIP and a Business Lounge, Duty Free shop, gift shop, jewellery
shop, a cafe and the VAT refund.
Petrol is provided for the public
at the AVIS turnaround station. Due to the phasing-out of 93 octane
fuel, only 95 octane fuel is available. Please note that you will
have to drive 45km to get to Windhoek. Alternatively you can use
a taxi/shuttle service.
