Phillip Gaonwe Matante International Airport (IATA: FRW, ICAO: FBPM), also known as Francistown International Airport, serves Francistown, Botswana. The public airport, which caters to both commercial and national military's aircraft, is on the western edge of the city. The airport was named after Philip Matante.[2]

Facilities

The new terminal building opened in 2011 and the old terminal at the eastern end of the airport was transferred to the Botswana Defence Force.[3] There are no jet bridges, thus passengers must walk from the terminal to designated parking areas on the tarmac in front of the terminal. A new control tower was built next to the new terminal.

The passenger terminal has an arrival and departure hall. A small retail area hosts car rental companies, an ATM and a post office.[citation needed]

Other tenants include Customs and Excise, Immigration, Meteorological Service Office, Air BP Fuels, and Air Botswana Offices.

Francistown handles domestic and regional (within Africa) flights.
