Kasane International Airport is an airport serving Kasane, a town in the Chobe District of Botswana. The airport is located along the A33 road, south of the town and south of the border with Namibia.
Air Botswana provides scheduled service between Kasane and Gaborone on Tuesdays, Fridays, and Sundays. Numerous charter flight operators offer flights to other destinations in the vicinity.
Because it is near Chobe National Park, the airport is mainly used for tourism. Most lodges in the Kasane area provide shuttles from and to the airport. A bus shuttle is available for travel to Victoria Falls in Zambia and Zimbabwe.
The present 7800m2 terminal was opened on 22 February 2018. It replaced the original 1300m2 terminal building which opened in 1991.[1]
