King Shaka International Airport, KwaZulu-Natal

King Shaka International Airport currently accommodates almost 5 million passengers annually. It is situated at the original La Mercy Airport, 35 kilometres from Durban on the Dolphin Coast of KwaZulu-Natal – making airport transfers from Durban airport the quick and easy option, especially for business commuters.

The new airport provides for considerable expansion, with a runway of 3.7km, encouraging more international flights for Durban. The passenger terminal building spans 102 000m2 and has been designed with the latest design concept to minimize inconvenience and confusion as passengers proceed through the terminal.

Southwest of the airport is the Mount Moreland reed bed, where an estimated three million swallows roost between October and April. A radar monitoring system, purchased and installed by ACSA, observes the patterns and behaviour of the swallows and has up to date data on the daily swallow movement.
