Airports Company South Africa (ACSA) stated that even though it has managed to increase its fuel reserves, international passengers should still arrive four hours before departure.
Even though ACSA announced that the vessel carrying fuel had docked, the company still needs to run tests before pumping it to the refinery.
‘Cape Town International Airport management earlier engaged airlines and requested a reduction in the uplift of fuel, and this has allowed the airport to now have up to 4.5 days of fuel reserves,’ Acsa commented.
The airport’s management still urges travellers, especially international ones, to arrive at least four hours before departure while the airport resolves its fuel issues, IOL reports.
