Stellenbosch Airport

Flying to Stellenbosch or visiting FASH

Which airport should you search for?

For passenger flights, start by checking Cape Town International Airport (CPT). It is the closest of the passenger airports we compare for Stellenbosch, about 25 km from the town’s reference point in a straight line. Search for CPT on your travel dates, then check the onward journey to your accommodation.

Cape Town International and Stellenbosch Airport are separate places. For pickup, give your driver the airport name on your booking. If you’re meeting someone at FASH for an arranged visit, say Stellenbosch Airport and share the meeting point the organiser gave you. The town name alone won’t settle which airport you mean.

FASH is the identifier used on this page

You’ll see FASH beside the airport name in this directory. No three-letter IATA code is listed for Stellenbosch Airport in our data. Keep the full name with FASH when sharing the location, rather than treating it as a passenger booking code like CPT.

The airport is listed as a small airport. That describes its category, not a ticket you can buy or an activity you can turn up for. If someone has arranged a flight or airport visit for you, ask them to confirm exactly where you should go and who you should meet.

Before a visit to Stellenbosch Airport

For a private flight, charter or aviation activity, confirm the arrangements directly with your operator or organiser. Ask about access, the meeting time and where anyone collecting you should wait. Use their directions for the entrance: the map pin here marks the airport’s location, not a checked visitor gate.

The runway details further down are background information about the airfield. They don’t establish access or permission to fly there. If you’re simply travelling to a hotel or other address in Stellenbosch, return to the town’s airport comparison and plan from the airport on your ticket.
