In a media release, Airports Company South Africa (ACSA) has acknowledged the recent data released by global aviation database and analytics company OAG’s Global Airline Schedules, which highlights the World’s Busiest Airports for 2024.

“We are proud to note that OR Tambo International Airport (ORTIA) has been ranked among the top ten busiest airports in the Middle East and Africa, having facilitated over 12-million scheduled seats this year. 

“ORTIA continues to serve as a vital hub for air travel, trade and connectivity within the region,” it says.

As South Africa’s primary international gateway, ACSA says ORTIA has demonstrated significant growth and operational excellence, handling over 17.8-million passengers in the fiscal year from April 2023 to March 2024, with more than 204 000 aircraft movements during the same period.

ACSA says these figures underscore ORTIA's capacity to manage high passenger volumes and substantial air traffic movements, reinforcing its status as the busiest airport in Africa.

It notes that the airport offers connections to numerous destinations worldwide, facilitating seamless travel for passengers and supporting economic growth through enhanced connectivity.

“ACSA remains committed to providing world-class infrastructure and operational excellence to support the continued growth and success of ORTIA.”
