It acts as a regional gateway for charter, safari and light aircraft traffic, complementing the larger Kilimanjaro International Airport, which handles most international arrivals for the area.
Located about 3.5 km from central Moshi, the airport sits close to the foot of Mount Kilimanjaro and is well placed for travellers heading to climbing trailheads, coffee farms and the national parks of northern Tanzania. Its single compact terminal brings check-in, waiting, arrivals and baggage areas together in one building.
The airport operates two runways and an apron able to accommodate small aircraft types such as the Cessna Caravan and ATR 42. Airlines and operators including Coastal Aviation and other light aviation companies run domestic, charter and scenic flights from Moshi.
Road access from Moshi is short and straightforward by taxi, hotel transfer or private vehicle, with the journey to the town centre usually taking around 10 to 15 minutes.
