About O.R. Tambo International Airport
O.R. Tambo is Africa's busiest airport and the primary hub for South African Airways. It has two terminals — Terminal A (international) and Terminal B (domestic) — connected by a central atrium. The terminals share a common departures area, making it possible to walk between them, but they operate as distinct zones with separate security checkpoints.
Terminal & Concourse Overview
Terminal A (International)
Terminal A handles all international departures and arrivals. It serves South African Airways, British Airways, Emirates, Qatar Airways, and many other carriers.
Terminal B (Domestic)
Terminal B handles domestic flights on South African Airways, FlySafair, and other carriers. It is smaller and simpler than Terminal A.

What to Consider Before Settling Into a Lounge at JNB
Johannesburg's two-terminal layout is relatively simple compared to other major hubs. The central atrium connects Terminals A and B, but security checkpoints may require re-clearing when crossing. International passengers should use Terminal A lounges. The airport can be busy during morning and evening flight banks, and queues at security and immigration can be long.
