Overview
Virginia Airport (IATA: VIR, ICAO: FAVG) is an airport serving Durban, the largest city in the province of KwaZulu-Natal in South Africa. This general aviation airport is located 10 kilometres (5.4 nautical miles) north east of Durban. This airport was the home of the Durban Airshow before it ran into problems by failing to meet new public safety standards. The Durban Airshow was eventually permanently cancelled due to the close proximity of the crowd line to the runway. In 2024, the airshow returned, although with a limited display of aircraft.
