The Katima Mulilo airport is the gateway for the tropical Caprivi region and the town is home to the African BIG 5 that attracts
a lot of tourists. This airport is situated within two hours drive from the famous Victoria Falls and not more than four
hours drive from the Kavango Delta in Botswana. It has reliable fuel services giving rise to many refueling stops for air
traffic from South Africa en route to Central Africa.
A road leading to the airport is one of the future projects to be embarked upon by Namibia Airports Company.
Katima Mulilo Airport has an air traffic control service, fuel and basic fire fighting facilities. Customs and Immigration
Officers are at the airport while a NAMPOL Aviation Security unit is deployed for safety and security purposes.
