Congo Airports

Congo airports include the two major international airports as well as number of smaller airports throughout the country, many of which have unpaved runways and very old rickety planes for regional travel.

Mostly airports are fairly well-organised, but can lack decent facilities and may be very basic. Travelers should remember that taking photographs of airports or other government buildings is not permitted, so keep the camera away until you are at a safe distance.
