a very nice easy to read airport, terminal A and B all easily link, you can walk. There is some stores before passport control but the best is once you get actually in, plenty of stores, restos to serve you. I spent time here as was given a free ride to airport,and spend it at the wandys or mandys terrace overllooking the approach to the airport.

this I am told is recently done, and a semi metro subway tube transportation coming into the terminus of chic Sandton, and then goes above ground linking with public transport trains elsewhere, the convenience is that is link directly with OR Tambo international airport in Jo'burg.
You buy a magnetic card, good for the trips you need or about 105 rands for the airport run,and enter thru turntiles like any other metro system.
You then descend by escalators or elevators:lifts, a couple floors down to catch the train. The airport is the yellow line.

best shuttle transfers from airport to lodge all under the ownership and the timing is fantastic, great service, know the area well, and can arrange for even safaris. If you stay in the lodge hotel the pricing is combine and better, otherwise think about 400 rands for the roundtrip from airport.

Johannesburg can be a scary place for first timers, sure if you're staying in a five star hotel you can probably arrange a hotel transfer from the airport, and you can probably rely on some 'same old' package deal trips in and around Joburg, but if you want to save cash and make friends at the same time speak to Jay or Oupa. Over the years they've proven to be very reliable. So if you want a friendly face to meet you at the airport, or to show you around Soweto, or drive you to the Kruger Park, these are your guys. I use them for colleagues, family and friends and they've never let me down. I'm pretty sure they'll beat any quotes you get on transport, just negotiate. Jay Cel +2783 485 2141 or Oupa Cel +2782 852 2365. Or VTmail me and I'll get in touch with them for you.

Helpfulness
If not for the fact that the airport transfer is provided for when I booked the hotel via Internet, I would have to fork out US$30 for a 1 way trip for the airport bus. Mind you the trip is just about 30 minutes and a taxi would have cost much more.
Even in Japan and London you don't see such prices. Please make sure the airport transfer is included when you book your hotel. One way transfer is equivalent to 1 night's stay.
