The Cape Winelands Airport plans to start operating local and international flights by 2027. Situated 13 km northeast of Durbanville, the airport is strategically located to serve the Cape Town aviation and tourism sector.
The development plans for the airport incorporate the region's wine heritage into its design, with vineyards forming part of the landscape.
The site will also include open spaces with a plaza, a hotel, a conference centre, a wine-tasting experience, an outdoor amphitheatre for events, an aviation museum, and at-grade parking facilities.
Within the controlled airside area, a portion of the land will be dedicated to a botanical garden showcasing a diverse collection of fynbos.
Additional developments on the site will include cargo terminals , aircraft hangars, a hotel, a heliport, and warehousing and logistics facilities. Plans also include a commercial real estate development.
