I propose to apply a few stylistic and factual updates to this article:

  • the article contains a lot of repetitions ("The airport is...") that could be worded a little bit more elegantly
  • though Maun Airport is probably the closest public/commercial airport to Chobe National Park and the Makgadkgadi Pans it is somewhat misleading to state that it is "near" those places; both parks are effectively a couple hour drive away
  • the airport is undoubtedly important for Maun's economy, but the "shopping experiences about 1-2 km from the mall" can hardly be considered a reason or proof of its significance
  • the link to the Air Namibia timetable is broken

If I don't hear from anyone I will apply these proposed improvements in the next couple of days.
