The existing runway is capable of handling aircraft up to B737 or A319 or equivalent, however, plans are underway to construct a new 4000m runway that will allow larger aircraft to use the airport. Larger aircraft will mean that the Victoria Falls can be accessed directly by long haul flights from the Americas, Europe and Asia. The expansion of the airport will also include the construction of a new international terminal building and the current one will be converted into an exclusive domestic terminal.
The airport operates 12 hours per day and immigration and revenue services are all available during the operating hours. It offers airport facilities and services, including aircraft parking, cargo and passenger handling, refueling, weather information, restaurants and duty free shops. Plans are underway to bring banking facilities which are only found in town. The airport has shuttle services to and from hotels and other places in town. There is a variety of tour operators, car rentals offering from small economy to top of the range rental vehicles, as well as reliable taxis at the airport. (
