Windhoek Airport by F Zanon

14 November 2008   Customer Rating : n/a

The main lounge is quite large, and it is clean and bright. There are some shops, vat refund (enter the "Custom Office"), tables outside the airport to enjoy last minutes of Namibia. Not many flights, but in the evening there are departures to Germany and South Africa at the same time and the departure lounge is really too small for all passengers leaving! Expect to sit on the floor, so wait in the main lounge until is possible. Duty free is expensive, a poor bar and a very small gift and diamonds(!) shop. There are only 5 or 6 gates, but often the screens show the wrong flights! There is a smoking area, often crowded too!

Certainly is small, but if you are waiting to fly and have some time on your hands consider using the Business Class lounge @ N$13, which includes all drinks, nibbles, biscuits, cakes and SHOWER! But you do have to bring your own towel. The seats are certainly more comfortable and you get away from the mob. We certainly thought it well worth the money as we had to wait 3 hours.

This is quite a small airport. In the main lobby there is a small restaurant whose staff spend their time texting their mates unless to disturb them because you (shock) want to order some food. There is also bureau de change, a couple of expensive gift shops, a poor tourist information bureau and a post office counter. Once through check in there are a couple more gift shops, a large pricey duty-free shop and a bar. Also bureau to change and tax-reclaim. But no food available so make sure you've eaten first. The waiting lounge look out over the runway and is very pleasant.
