Harare International Airport (IATA: HRE, ICAO: FVHA) is an airport in Harare, Zimbabwe. It is the largest airport in the country.

The airport is today operated by the Civil Aviation Authority of Zimbabwe and is the hub of Air Zimbabwe. The airport’s runway, at 4,725 metres (15,502 ft), is currently one of the longest in Africa. It is longer than all of OR Tambo International Airport in Johannesburg, South Africa runways, with the longest runway at OR Tambo measuring 4,418 metres (14,495 ft). The reason for this is that both are “hot and high” airports requiring long take-off runs. Harare International airport is currently refurbishing the current runway with lengthening that will result in it being the longest runaway in Africa at over 5,000 metres (16,000 ft)

Air Rhodesia established its headquarters at the airport in 1967, and since Independence in 1980, Air Rhodesia’s successor, Air Zimbabwe, has maintained the status-quo with its head office, too, located at the airport. Civil aviation regulatory authority, the Civil Aviation Authority of Zimbabwe has its head office on level 3 of the new International Terminal.
