Regional gateway serving the Eastern Cape's former homeland capital.

Location
Bisho, South Africa
Bisho Airport (IATA: BIY, ICAO: FABE) is a small regional airport located in Bisho, the capital of the Eastern Cape province of South Africa. It primarily serves government and charter traffic in a region that was once the capital of the former Ciskei homeland. The airport is situated close to King William's Town and is within reasonable driving distance of East London, which has a larger commercial airport. Bisho Airport handles limited scheduled commercial traffic and is more commonly used for general aviation, military, and government flights. Due to its proximity to East London Airport (approximately 50 km away), Bisho Airport sees relatively modest passenger volumes and limited airline connectivity compared to other South African regional airports.

The airport has a basic single terminal facility suited to low-volume regional and charter operations.
