Johannesburg is served mainly by OR Tambo International (JNB) as the country’s primary international hub, while Lanseria (HLA) functions as a smaller alternative with a more budget- and regional-focused profile. OR Tambo handles most long-haul and full-service carriers alongside several low-cost operators; it sits about 22 km east of the city centre and can be reached by Gautrain express in roughly 20–25 minutes (paid fares typically fall in a mid-range bracket) or by taxi/ride-share in 30–45 minutes depending on traffic. Lanseria is northwest of the city, often used by low-cost and regional airlines and can be 45–60 minutes away by car. Pros: OR Tambo offers extensive facilities and frequent connections; cons: peak-hour congestion and longer walk times between terminals. Lanseria can be quicker for budget flyers but has fewer amenities.

Harare International Airport (HRE), serving Zimbabwe’s capital, is typically the country’s main international gateway and a modest regional hub rather than a large global transit centre. It usually handles a mix of full-service carriers and regional or low-cost operators, so fares can be relatively mid-range for Southern Africa routes. The airport lies about 15–20 km southeast of downtown Harare; road transfer by taxi or rideshare commonly takes 20–40 minutes depending on traffic and can be moderately priced, while airport shuttles or private transfers may be available for a higher fee. Facilities are generally functional but compact, offering basic dining and car hire; the convenience of proximity is balanced by limited lounge and transit amenities compared with bigger hubs.
