Cape Town International is South Africa's second-largest airport, and a prime tourism gateway serving millions of visitors descending on the Mother City every year.
Traffic through the airport reflects this: over 60 000 aircraft ferrying over 6.7-million passengers in 2005. By 2015, 14-million passengers are expected to pass through Cape Town International.

The airport is world-class, winning the Skytrax Best Airport in Africa award in 2005, and being named the World Travel Awards' leading airport in Africa from 2001 through 2004 (coming second to Johannesburg International in 2005).

Airports Company South Africa (Acsa) has committed R1-billion to upgrading and developing the airport, including extensions to existing terminal buildings, the construction of parkades, two new satellite terminals and an expanded runway system.

The new international arrivals terminal, opened in 2001, has the capacity to process 950 arriving passengers per hour. It is light and spacious, providing convenient, efficient service to international passengers.
