Batangafo Airport (BTG)

Batangafo Airport is a small airfield serving Batangafo, a town on the Ouham River in the Ouham-Fafa prefecture of the Central African Republic. Located about 3 km from the town on its northeastern edge, just off the RN4 road, it provides a basic aviation link for the town and the wider Ouham region. The airfield has a single unpaved runway designated 05/23 and is used mainly by humanitarian operators such as UNHAS and MINUSCA rather than scheduled commercial airlines. It has no passenger terminal, customs, immigration or fuel services, so operations are arranged directly with the organizations using the airfield. Road access is available to Batangafo town, while Bangui, the national capital, lies approximately 326 km to the south. Travelers using the airport generally need to arrange ground transport in advance because public passenger facilities at the airfield are limited. For visitors and aid workers, the airport functions primarily as a practical entry point for local and humanitarian movements rather than as a conventional commercial gateway.
