I would give this ACSA all stars however, I would like to believe that this facility has a potential to be the one of the best domestic airport as it is closest to the town it is currently named after. It takes literally less that 8 minutes to drive from Kimberley CBD to Kimberley Airport which is rare in most domestic airports around South Africa . The staff members at this airport are friendly and welcoming, the check in process for the departures and the disembarking process for the arrivals are both effective and efficient. Car hire pick up and drop off as well as General pick and drop off for private airport transfers is seamless. I really enjoyed the entire process. There is a restaurant to grab something to eat as you wait for your next departure too. Looking forward to the next visit.
Nice. After more than two year since we visited the place. Great to be back again.
Car parking is more expensive than ever. It's now R25 for 30 minutes! To add insult to injury one of their two ticket validating machines accepts only cards - not cash. And it gets better. Said machines are so poorly positioned that in the early morning you can't see what's on their screens because of the bright sunlight. We'll done the Airports Company.
Small Airport. Checking in and Security relativly quick and easy, can get overcrowded with long lines if very busy. Small restaurant area. Not a lot of seating otherwise. Drop off and go parking also limited, but not usually a problem.
The people at the airport are friendly and welcoming. A very intimate set up. Not big and easy to get around. Did not like the toilets as they where filthy. Had to wait to get to the hotel
Used the airport three weeks ago to get a connecting flight in Johannsburg. The Kimberley airport was totally renovated in 2010 for the FIFA Soccer World cup . Since then maintainance has disappeared from the vocabulary !!!!! What a shame. Kimberley airport has become quiet busy over the last few years. In winter overseas hunters arrive here . During the year business people commute weekly from here to JHB or visa versa . Toilets are tatty, toilet paper not refilled when asked, it was recommended that I should ask my "toilet neighbor" for some !!!, No soap , no paper or hand towels. Damage locks, toilet handles etc. Staff at the departure desk friendly and helpful. Like everywhere in the country facilities are not maintained.
friendly security staff, beware the weekend fuel call out fee at R600
Clean. Neat. Quick with luggage. Nice little coffee shop. Very well done
The fact that I have to haul my luggage closer to the physical exit of the Airport's premises is ridiculous and an inconvenience. There is a lack of signage. There is no politeness or standard professionalism in how passengers are addressed when guiding them to check in. You can not address someone with the words "Hey, hallo, over here" again, lack of signage.
Great little airport. You won't get lost here
