New multibillion-rand airport aims to rival Cape Town International

Ferguson stated that the airport is poised to become a ‘destination alternate’ airport for travellers in Cape Town, rivalling Cape Town International in capacity and handling more air traffic.

Ferguson emphasised that significant industry savings could be realised once the Cape Winelands Airport becomes operational, currently planned for 2027. ‘Certain smaller planes cannot be accommodated at the airport during peak times, so we are making space to accommodate them.’ Since then, it has functioned as a general flying field for the General Aviation sector, supporting flight training, aircraft maintenance, charter operations, and recreational flying. It features four concrete runways, each 90 metres wide, with lengths varying between 700 metres and 1 500 metres.
