The airport sits about 16–20 km north of the city centre; road transfers normally take 30–60 minutes depending on traffic. Options include taxis (metered or fixed-fare; expect modest fares relative to Western cities), hotel shuttles, and occasional shared minibuses, while private transfers can be arranged for more comfort. Pros: central hub with direct domestic links and basic passenger facilities; cons: can be busy at peak times, limited lounge/international connections compared with larger global hubs.

Johannesburg is served primarily by O.R. Tambo International Airport (JNB), the country’s main international hub handling most long-haul and regional flights, and by Lanseria International Airport (HLA), a smaller airport that often caters to low-cost carriers and some regional services. O.R. Tambo sits about 22 km east of the city centre, with Gautrain rapid rail taking roughly 20–25 minutes to Sandton from the airport and commuter taxis or rideshares usually 30–45 minutes depending on traffic; fares for rapid rail and shuttle options can typically range from modest to mid-tier. Lanseria lies northwest, around 40–45 km from central Johannesburg, usually reached in 45–60 minutes by taxi or shuttle. Pros: O.R. Tambo offers extensive international connections and amenities, while Lanseria can be quicker and less crowded for budget routes.
