The Port Elizabeth Airport has been renamed to Chief Dawid Stuurman International Airport, and Port Elizabeth will now be known as Gqeberha. Uitenhage has been renamed to Kariega, while the East London Airport is now known as the King Phalo Airport. King Williams Town is now known as Qonce. This after a two-year process, which saw residents and the Eastern Cape DA opposing the Port Elizabeth name change. “The name defines who we are and it has been the name identifying our Friendly City to generations of people. The majority of our people love the name of the City and do not find it offensive at all. Not all names from the past are offensive.
