Winelands airport awaits decision on environmental assessment
Cape Argus
|September 16, 2025
CAPE Winelands Airport is awaiting the results of its final Environmental Application Report, also known as an Environmental Impact Report (EIR), submitted in May, to hear if they have the green light to build what is to become Cape Town's own Lanseria International Airport.
Managing director of Cape Winelands Airport, Deon Cloete, who was also the former general manager of Cape Town International Airport (CTIA), said that they have been working on the airport's grand plans for the past five years. The EIR was completed by an environmental practitioner who oversees their application.
Cape Winelands Airport, previously known as Fisantekraal Airport, has been in existence for over 80 years and is currently used for training, private aircraft charters, with four runways.
The airport will have a 3.5km runway, and they have also completed an application for an international licence, as “we hope to have some international services”.
