Moshoeshoe I International Airport lies in the temperate mid-latitudes at 29.46° S, 27.55° E, on Africa/Maseru time (UTC+2).
Moshoeshoe I International Airport has 2 runways. The longest, 04/22, measures 10,498 ft by 148 ft, which puts the field in the long-haul capable category: widebodies operate comfortably, though the very longest sectors may need a payload trade. The surface is asphalt. Both are lit for night operations.
Runway 04/22 is aligned roughly north/south, which is the clearest hint you get about the prevailing wind here: runways are built to face the wind that blows most often, because aircraft take off and land into it. With 2 runways across 2 different headings, crews can pick whichever best suits the wind.
The runways are not interchangeable. 11/29 is 3,314 ft against 04/22's 10,498 ft, a difference of 7,184 ft, so the shorter one generally takes regional traffic while the longer handles anything heavy.
The field sits at 5,348 ft, high enough that density altitude matters. Takeoff runs stretch on warm afternoons and climb performance is weaker than the same aircraft would manage at sea level.
