Joshua Mqabuko Nkomo International Airport (BUQ), serving Bulawayo, is typically the city’s main commercial gateway and handles regional and some international flights rather than being a large long-haul hub. Carriers are usually regional or national airlines; budget options can be limited so fares may often be mid-range compared with major African hubs. The airport sits about 10–15 km southwest of the city center, with transfers by taxi or private car generally taking 15–30 minutes and costing roughly the local equivalent of a modest fare; airport shuttles or ride-hailing may be available on some days. Pros: compact layout and short walk times; cons: limited shopping and fewer flight frequencies than larger hubs.
Johannesburg is served mainly by O.R. Tambo International (JNB) as the country’s primary international hub and Lanseria (HLA) which often handles low-cost and regional services. O.R. Tambo typically hosts full-service carriers and many long-haul flights, while Lanseria can be a budget-friendly alternative for domestic and some regional routes. O.R. Tambo lies about 22 km east of central Johannesburg, with Gautrain trains to Sandton in roughly 20–25 minutes and taxis or ride-hailing taking 20–40 minutes depending on traffic; fares and transfer services vary. Lanseria sits about 40 km northwest, usually reached by shuttle or car in 35–60 minutes. Pros: broad international connections at JNB and potentially lower fares at Lanseria. Cons: O.R. Tambo can be busy and subject to peak-hour congestion, while Lanseria offers fewer amenities and connections.
