Polokwane International Airport — Polokwane, South Africa

Limpopo province's main air gateway, Polokwane International Airport, coded PTG, serves the capital of a South African region that stretches toward the borders of Zimbabwe, Botswana, and Mozambique and includes a significant share of the country's game reserves beyond the more famous Kruger National Park. Formerly known as Gateway Airport and, before that, Pietersburg Airport under an older name for the city itself, the facility has undergone several identity changes tracking South Africa's broader post-apartheid renaming of public infrastructure. PTG functions primarily as a domestic hub, with regular flights connecting Polokwane to Johannesburg and other major South African cities, supporting business travelers tied to the region's mining and agricultural industries as well as tourists heading onward to nearby reserves. The airport's relatively high elevation on the northern plateau gives it a milder climate than South Africa's hotter lowveld areas nearby.
