OR Tambo International Airport (JNB), Johannesburg: Relocation of public transport operators!

Airports Company South Africa (ACSA) has announced the relocation of public transport operators such as e-hailing, shuttles and meter taxis at OR Tambo International Airport (JNB) in Johannesburg to ease traffic congestion. These services are now available and accessible at the Central Pick up and Drop off, Parkade 2 - level 2. The designated area enables passengers to swiftly get into their preferred transport and effortlessly leave the airport as well as seamlessly be dropped off and access the terminal. Passengers that will be picked up and dropped off by their family and friends will still be able to do so on the roadway, quickly and hassle-free.


Access to Parkade 2 - level 2:

There are separate entrances to Parkade 2, depending on which direction one is coming from. As a passenger who needs to access e-hailing, meter-taxis of shuttles can use the following guidelines:

From Domestic Arrivals

  • Proceed up the escalators to the food court level
  • Take the exit opposite Wimpy in the food court, where the Police Kiosk is located
  • Proceed through the glass doors over the bridge
  • You are now at Parkade 2 - level 2

From International Arrivals (Option 1)

  • Proceed through the arrivals doors leading onto the roadway
  • Go across the road and enter the terminal using the glass door on the left
  • Take the escalators to Parkade 2 – level 2
  • Exit through the glass doors into the parkade (Parkade 2 – Level 2)

From International Arrivals (Option 2)

  • Proceed up the escalators behind the information desk
  • Make your way towards the centre passage above the arrivals atrium (follow Parkade 2 signage)
  • Proceed down the passage to Parkade 2 level 2 and exit through the doors into the parkade.

Please note: ACSA also said that it is aware that its pick up and drop off offering at OR Tambo International Airport (JNB) has not historically been the best but this initiative is to tackle and alleviate those challenges.
