Musaafir performing qasr salaah at the airport

Q: I live in Durban and Insha Allah will be going for Umrah the next day from Johannesburg. I will be flying from Durban to Johannesburg. If I am making Zohr Salaat at the Durban airport before catching the flight, do I read the full salaat or am I going to make qasr salaat?

A: Since you have commenced your journey and you are out of your hometown, you will perform qasr salaah at the airport.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
