OR Tambo International Airport (JNB): Delays at Immigration and Emmigration due to implementation of the new Biometric Movement Control Systems!

South Africa's flag carrier, South African Airways (SAA), and South African regional airline Airlink have advised their passengers travelling through OR Tambo International Airport (JNB) in Johannesburg to allow for additional processing times at immigration points for both departing and arriving flights. The South African Department of Home Affairs (DHA) and the Border Management Agency (BMA) are currently implementing the new Biometric Movement Control Systems (BMCS), which will extend the time required to process customers. As a result, wait times at Immigration and Emigration queues will increase, and may also affect international arrivals baggage collection.
Both airlines strongly recommend that passengers check in early and proceed through security with enough time for Immigration processes. We'll keep you posted!
