Oliver Tambo International Airport

They call it Oliver Tambo International Airport now, but since time immemorial it has been the main port of entry into South Africa for long haul flights. The country's biggest airport has, it seems, been a construction site for absolute ages. As 2010 approaches, however, every visitor can see the benefits as new and improved sections open for business.

Yeh Johannesburg international airport name makes a lot of sense !...

i preferred it being called Johannesburg International as that was a name which actually made sense. I think all airports should have some geographical connection - naming it after ppl just confuses everyone.
