The runway has not yet been completed. Most probably by June (what year I cannot say). There are only building plans for the terminal building, unsure when they are going to start with construction. Rumors has it that SAA and Singapore airlines wanna use Walvis as a technical stop en route to South America and the USA. Because of the sea level, SAA can take a bigger load factor from Jo'burg and take up more fuel in Walvis.
