===Air=== Windhoek is served by two airports, with the closest one being [[Eros Airport]], located {{cvt|7|km}} south of the city centre for smaller craft, and the other being [[Hosea Kutako International Airport]], {{cvt|42|km}} east of the city. A number of foreign airlines operate to and from Windhoek. Air charters and helicopter and fixed-wing aircraft rentals are also available. [[File:Hosea Kutako International Airport, Namibia (2017).jpg|thumb|left|Airport with [[air traffic control]] tower (2017)]] Hosea Kutako International Airport handles over 800,000 passengers a year. It has one runway without capacity limitations. The other international airport is located in [[Walvis Bay]], with domestic airports at [[Lüderitz]], [[Oranjemund]], and [[Ondangwa]]. Eros Airport is the busiest airport in Namibia in terms of takeoffs and landings.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.airports.com.na/eros.php |title=Namibia Airports Company |access-date=9 October 2011 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://archive.today/20120904002500/http://www.airports.com.na/eros.php |archive-date=4 September 2012 |df=dmy-all}}</ref> This city airport handles approximately 150 to 200 movements per day, amounting to roughly 50,000 per year. In 2004, the airport served 141,605 passengers, the majority of which are light aircraft. Primarily, limitations such as runway length, noise, and air space congestion have kept Eros from developing into a larger airport. Most of Namibia's charter operators have Eros as their base.
