Yalinga Airport is a small rural airstrip serving Yalinga, a town in the Haute-Kotto prefecture of the Central African Republic. The airport is identified by the IATA code AIG and the ICAO code FEFY, and sits at an elevation of about 602 metres.
Located roughly 1 kilometre northeast of Yalinga town, the airstrip mainly supports domestic flights, light aircraft and cargo operations. It has a single unpaved grass runway, designated 08/26, measuring approximately 1,195 metres.
Because it is a remote airstrip, passenger infrastructure and onward transport are basic. The short road connection links the airport with Yalinga, while longer road journeys continue to Bria, the capital of Haute-Kotto, and other parts of the country.
For travellers heading to the area, the airport offers a straightforward entry point, but services such as dining, shopping and public transport are limited, so it is advisable to arrange transfers in advance.
