Hundreds of passengers had to leave the Cape Town International Airport yesterday morning after a fire broke out in a kitchen restaurant.
The fire started at News Café at 8:15am and was put out at 9am. This however, caused confusion as many passengers had waited outside for more than two hours.
No one was harmed in the blaze, but many people complained about airport’s poor communication and communication plan.
The Airport Company of South Africa slammed reports around the allegations of inadequate security procedures.
Acsa spokesperson Deidre Hendricks told a daily newspaper that all emergency exits were open and that a terminal manager had been sent to test the exits after complaints from passengers.
