The awards recognise success in airport marketing, for supporting support the successful launch of new routes or the development of existing ones.
 
Cape Town Airport’s passenger numbers inflated by 10% to just under 9.7 million last year.
 
The airport also has a strong capital investment programme, which covers realignment of its runway in order to handle larger aircraft and a new domestic arrivals lounge.
 
“This growth is not only attributable to the inherent attractions of the province, the resourcefulness and ingenuity of its citizens and its well-positioned growth sectors, but also to its access to global markets,” said a Cape Town International Airport official.
 
Winning the award automatically adds Cape Town Airport to the shortlist for the World Routes Awards in Chengdu, China on 26 September 2016.
