Airports can't open 24/7 yet - CAAB

Tlhokwane was updating stakeholders on progress made on resolutions of last year's Aviation Pitso in Kasane. The forum had recommended that all airports should operate 24 hours a day.

He said part of the recommendation was that whenever aircrafts or airliners have to operate outside the airports' working hours, they would request CAAB to extend their working hours. He said CAAB is unable to implement this recommendation due to lack of funds to cover costs of additional staff required and other airport operations.
