## Description

Balkfontein, on the Vaal River in South Africa's Free State, has a private farm and works airstrip with no public scheduled traffic. There is no freight handling, customs or ground-handling service, so its air cargo relevance is effectively nil. Regional consignments are lodged at Bloemfontein (BFN); international air freight runs through O. R. Tambo in Johannesburg (JNB).
