Johannesburg is served primarily by O.R. Tambo International (JNB), the countryβs main international gateway and a major regional hub for full-service carriers and several international airlines, and by smaller Lanseria (HLA), which typically caters to low-cost and regional operators. O.R. Tambo sits about 22 km east of the city centre and is usually reachable by Gautrain rapid rail in roughly 20β25 minutes (fares can be moderate), or by taxis/rideshares and shuttle buses taking 30β50 minutes depending on traffic and costing more. Lanseria is northwest, roughly 40 km out, often reached by car or scheduled transfer in about 40β60 minutes. Pros: O.R. Tambo offers extensive connections and amenities; Lanseria can be quieter and sometimes cheaper. Cons: peak-hour road congestion can add travel time, and budget carriers may use the smaller airport with fewer facilities.
