For some reason, whenever I have been to Bloemfontein in the past, it has always been by road. Yesterday was the first time I've flown in. Boy oh boy, they really deserve a better airport!

To describe the passenger areas as little more than a security gate with a room on each side would only be stretching the truth of it marginally. I see that the groundwork has started on a new terminal building, but it is hard to believe that something was not done to expand the facilities quite some time ago.

Do so few people fly in and out of Bloem?
Or maybe people choose not to fly because of the limited facilities and flights?

It certainly had me wondering about the chicken and the egg.
