Lusaka’s main gateway is Kenneth Kaunda International Airport (LUN), the country’s primary international hub that handles most long‑haul and regional flights alongside a handful of domestic services. Airlines here are typically full‑service regional and international carriers with some low‑cost operators on key routes, and fares can be mid‑range compared with nearby capitals. The airport sits about 27–35 km northwest of the city centre; taxis and ride‑hailing are common (roughly 30–50 minutes, fares varying by provider), while airport shuttles and private transfers offer fixed‑price options. Pros: newer terminal facilities and direct international connections; cons: onward transfers to central Lusaka can be time‑consuming and public transport options are limited.

Fly direct from Lusaka to Johannesburg for the fastest, most convenient way to get between Zambia and South Africa — fewer hassles, no layovers, and more time to enjoy your trip. While connecting flights can sometimes be cheaper, a nonstop option saves valuable travel time and offers a more comfortable, stress-free journey worth the upgrade.

Johannesburg is served primarily by OR Tambo International (JNB), the country’s main international hub handling most long-haul and regional flights with full-service carriers and many low-cost options, and by Lanseria (HLA), a smaller airport often used for budget and regional services. OR Tambo lies about 22 km east of the city center, typically a 25–45 minute drive depending on traffic; Gautrain rail and airport shuttles complement taxis and ride-hails, with fares varying by service. Lanseria sits roughly 40 km northwest and can be a quicker option for some domestic routes, though public transit is limited and transfers may add time. OR Tambo is more convenient for connections and amenities, while Lanseria can be less crowded and cheaper for point-to-point travel.
