Johannesburg is served mainly by O.R. Tambo International Airport (JNB), the country’s primary international gateway and a major southern African hub where full-service carriers and several regional airlines operate alongside some low-cost carriers. It lies about 22 km east of the city centre; typical travel times are roughly 25–45 minutes by car depending on traffic, or 15–20 minutes by the Gautrain rapid rail plus a short shuttle or taxi (fares for rail and shuttles can vary). A smaller alternative, Lanseria (HLA), sits northwest and is often used by budget and charter services, saving time for travellers from northern suburbs. Pros: broad connectivity and frequent transport links; cons: peak-hour road congestion and varying costs for transfers.
Sharjah International Airport (SHJ) functions mainly as a regional and low-cost gateway serving the northern emirates and many budget carriers; it can be a practical alternative to Dubai for cost-conscious travelers. Airlines typically include several Middle Eastern and South Asian low-cost and hybrid carriers, so fares are often competitive compared with nearby Dubai airports. The airport sits about 16–20 km east of Sharjah city centre (roughly 20–30 minutes by car in normal traffic). Ground options usually include taxis, app-hailing services and shared buses; travel times depend on traffic and fares can be modest compared with Dubai transfers. Pros: often lower prices and straightforward check-in; cons: fewer premium lounges and longer connections to Dubai attractions or major international transfer hubs.
