DRC Airports

DRC airports include major airports as well as smaller airports which offer domestic flights across the country.

As road travel is so bad, air travel is one of the best ways to get around the DRC, although this is not always safe and many planes crash in the country.

Airports in DRC

Airports in DRC vary, with facilities ranging from fair to poor.

Airport security and military presence can be daunting, and travelers should ensure that they follow basic guidelines like meeting customs requirements and should not take photographs anywhere in the airport at any time.
