    Altough the airport has ramped up its effort for the worldcup, it remains a rather provincial affair. The souvenir shop is unique, especially if you like zebra's.

    Something to share: The taxi driver told me, "O.R Tambo" is the name one of the new South Africa’s most important founding fathers,Oliver Reginald Tambo.

    You can get on an open wireless network "NETGEAR" by sitting outside of the Sunglasses Hut in Terminal A (once you're through security). It's fast.

    This is one of the worst airport. Passport Control was a zoo. A line 4 diplomats only BUT not marked. No one behind. Regular folks was filled with HUNDREDS (8 lines of 25 ppl). Only 3 windows working.

    You can't park by the arrivals / drop off area. You will be directed behind the parking building.

    Pick people up at departures not arrivals, less hectic and they don't move you on while you are waiting!

    Well it's not Cape Town. Initiative with check in staff is sorely lacking.
