How to reach Windhoek by air

Some European and regional African routes reach Windhoek directly, particularly seasonally. From most origins the practical approach is a flight into Johannesburg and a short connection west into Namibia.

On the ground

Airport, transfers and onward travel

Distance
Hosea Kutako is well out of town, about 45 km east of Windhoek. The Wanderers ground is a short drive from the central city, so most of the journey is the airport road itself.
Getting around
Because the airport is so far out, arranged transfers or a hire car are the norm. A car also suits anyone extending the trip into wider Namibia, where self-drive is popular.
Onward connections
Windhoek's strongest link is to Johannesburg, which threads it into the rest of the tournament network. As with Zimbabwe, capacity is limited, so book early.
