Important:
 
Call on (014) 743 6111 (General Manager) or (014) 743 6100 (reception) or e-mail: pilot.egr@legendlodges.co.za  / marcia.m@legendlodges.co.za with an accurate ETA so that we can inspect the runway’s condition and clear it of animals, as well as to provide transport as the runway is a distance from any of the lodges.
 
Please be so kind to update your ETA as we have to send personnel to the runway to meet you. Changing your travel plans or failing to update your ETA leaves our personnel waiting for you on the runway indefinitely and unnecessarily.
