OR Tambo airport had successful peak season, despite fuelling glitch says Mbalula

OR Tambo International Airport has had a successful holiday season which saw thousands of passengers using the airport in a stress-free and well managed environment, said transport minister Fikile Mbalula.

The subsequent delays affected 41 flights, 32 of which were domestic, eight international and one regional flight.

He said last week’s situation was not related to jet fuel supply challenges experienced at the airport last year.“We are now in a position to fast-track the implementation of mitigating projects that will help us ensure we do not have a reoccurrence of this nature.” Mbalula said the impact of Covid-19 severely impacted the global aviation industry and Acsa was no exception.

Mbalula said the airport handled close to 300 departing air traffic movements per day both domestic and international on its busiest days such as December 14, 15 and 16.
