Bisho Airport

Bisho Airport serves Bisho, the legislative capital of South Africa's Eastern Cape Province, at an elevation of 1,950 feet with a single runway. Bisho sits close to the larger city of King William's Town, and the airport mainly handles official trips connected to the provincial legislature rather than leisure tourism. Eastern Cape's interior carries a drier, more elevated climate than the province's Indian Ocean coastline further south. Scheduled flights from Bisho remain limited, and many travelers to the region instead route through the busier airport at East London.
