## Description

Malamala Airport (AAM) is the rare airfield where the typical payload is a camera, not a consignment. Sitting in the Sabi Sand reserve on the western edge of Kruger National Park, it is served by charter and feeder airlines flying safari guests in from Johannesburg and Kruger Mpumalanga. There is no cargo terminal and no scheduled freight; the airfield exists purely for tourism. Supplies for the surrounding lodges arrive mainly by road, and any regional airfreight clears through Kruger Mpumalanga (MQP) or O. R. Tambo. For freight forwarders, Malamala is a tourism strip rather than a cargo point.
