Chief Dawid Stuurman International Airport Upgrade

under construction

Airports Company South Africa (ACSA) is investing approximately R4 billion in infrastructure upgrades at Chief Dawid Stuurman International Airport in Gqeberha. The project aims to improve passenger experience by reducing waiting times through increased processing capacity at key passenger touchpoints such as check-in, security screening, and boarding. The first phase, the Terminal Capacity Optimisation Project, involves upgrading and reconfiguring the existing terminal to improve efficiency, functionality, and capacity. Future plans include a major terminal expansion in 2030, construction of a multi-storey parkade, relocation and expansion of the fire station, and runway and taxiway rehabilitation projects.
