Karasburg Airport (KAS/FYKB) is a small airfield serving Karasburg, a town in southern Namibia’s ǁKaras Region. Located near the B1 national road and the South African border, it primarily supports light aircraft, private charters, and occasional medical or agricultural flights rather than scheduled airline service. Its remote location makes it a practical but basic access point for the far south of Namibia.
💡 Local Tip
Frequent visitors treat Karasburg as a fuel and supply stop before heading deeper into the south, but don’t assume the airfield itself has fuel or services—confirm everything in advance and carry water, sun protection, and a charged phone.
