Regular airport shuttles and authorized shuttle operators serve Cape Town International Airport and central Cape Town. Havas or Havabus-style scheduled airport shuttles are not a standard branded service at Cape Town airport, so passengers should use official airport shuttle desks or pre-booked operators.
