update (03 August 2024): South African domestic and regional carrier CemAir has announced that it has once again suspended all flights to and from Plettenberg Bay Airport/ Plettenberg Bay Aerodrome (PBZ) in Plettenberg Bay with immediate effect. Flights are currently suspended until 15 November 2024.
The South African Civil Aviation Authority (SACAA) has shut down Plettenberg Bay Airport/ Plettenberg Bay Aerodrome (PBZ) in Plettenberg Bay with immediate effect on 31 July 2024. The civil aviation authority of South Africa informed the Bitou Municipality, the airport’s licence holder, that Plettenberg Bay Airport’s Aerodrome Operating Licence had been suspended. According to the SACAA, the main reason for the suspension is the runway, which posed a “significant safety risk”.
In the meantime, the Bitou Municipality Council has resolved to appeal the South African Civil Aviation Authority's decision to suspend the operating license of the Plettenberg Bay Aerodrome (PBZ). We'll keep you posted!
