The only way to get to OR Tambo Airport if you are Able-bodied” 26 Nov 2013 moiraterwey Since the Gautrain started running, I have used this method of transport to get to Or Tambo from Fouways. It's quick and convenient and in my experience certainly quicker and less hazardous than the freeway road trip. The only difficulty is if you are NOT an able bodied passenger. There is no access for a luggage trolley between the 'ticket/turnstile' area onto the platform and this can be quite a walk. I recently had to fetched an elderly person from OR Tambo, with luggage, had no assistance and ended up having to call a friend to drive out to the airport as she couldn't manage the walk.
