Airports Company South Africa (ACSA) has announced that King Shaka International Airport (DUR) in Durban is currently experiencing water supply interruptions due to flood damage. The airport's ablution facilities are open for use, but are having a limited supply of water. The cleaning turnaround times are also expected to take longer than usual.
Due to the water supply interruptions, the Central Airconditioning System Chillers have also been shut down. ACSA has deployed Air Handling Units, but these do not provide fresh air to the airport. We'll keep you posted!
