Airports near Potchefstroom
The first result leads the second by 12 km in a straight line. The order is a straight-line ranking, not a driving time.

Which code to check for Potchefstroom
The ranking from this town point is 1. Lanseria International Airport (HLA) at 119 km; 2. O.R. Tambo International Airport (JNB) at 131 km; 3. Bram Fischer International Airport (BFN) at 276 km.
These distances start at the Potchefstroom reference point in the North West, not at a hotel, terminal door or pickup bay. A shorter line on the map does not tell you the fare, the flight time or which airport is quicker by road.
Search the ticket as HLA, not as Potchefstroom. Lanseria International Airport is associated with Johannesburg, which is a different name from the town you opened.

How to read the Potchefstroom gap
Because the first gap is only 12 km, check the address against both HLA and JNB before you pay for a transfer. BFN is the third compared airport, and a lower rank alone does not make it the practical choice.
