About Dirico Airport
Dirico Airport is a small public airport serving Dirico, a town in the southeastern Angolan province of Cuando Cubango. The airport supports regional connectivity in a remote area near the Namibian border and the Kavango River, providing a useful air link for a town that is otherwise reached by long overland journeys.
Located about 17 km from the centre of Dirico, the airport has a single grass runway and a compact passenger facility. Its IATA code is DRC, and it is located in Angola rather than in the Democratic Republic of the Congo.
Because of its limited size, the airport mainly handles domestic flights and smaller aircraft, and facilities are basic. Travellers commonly continue overland to Menongue, the capital of Cuando Cubango Province, or to settlements along the Kavango River.
Transport connections depend on pre-arranged road transfers, taxis or rental vehicles, since scheduled public transit in the area is limited. The airport's main role is local access and regional travel in one of Angola's less-developed provinces.
