About Kruger Mpumalanga International Airport

Kruger Mpumalanga International Airport (IATA: MQP, ICAO: FAKN) (Afrikaans: Kruger Mpumalanga Internasionale Lughawe) is located 27 kilometres (17 mi) north east of Mbombela in Mpumalanga, South Africa. Construction began in 2001, and it replaced the smaller Nelspruit Airport. It now serves travelers to Kruger National Park.

The airport terminal is roofed almost entirely by thatch, making it the largest thatched structure in Africa, covering approximately 7,350 square metres (79,100 sq ft).
