## Description

A single scheduled link, one airline and 18 km of road into Maseru sum up Moshoeshoe I (MSU), Lesotho's only international airport at Mazenod. Airlink operates the route to Johannesburg (JNB) several times a week, though the service was temporarily suspended in 2025 over missing airfield fire-and-rescue equipment. Air cargo here is limited to belly freight on those regional flights – useful for urgent parts, samples or small perishable consignments, but no more. The airport has no dedicated freight terminal, and Lesotho's trade moves mainly by road into South Africa and through the OR Tambo cargo gateway in Johannesburg. For forwarders, MSU is essentially a passenger field feeding JNB.
