About Zabré Airport
Zabré Airport (XZA) is a small airfield serving the town of Zabré in the Boulgou Province of Burkina Faso's Centre-Est Region. Located about 2 km southeast of the town centre, it provides a basic aviation link for the local area in south-eastern Burkina Faso.
The airfield has a single dirt runway and a modest ground-handling setup. It is primarily used for general and light aviation, with no scheduled commercial passenger service, so most visitors travelling to the wider region use Ouagadougou as the main international gateway before continuing by road.
Zabré lies in a rural part of the Centre-Est Region, roughly 72 km by direct line from Tenkodogo, the Boulgou provincial capital, with road journeys typically longer. Onward travel is generally by private vehicle or local road transport, connecting the town to nearby settlements and the rest of the region.
Given its limited facilities, Zabré Airport is best understood as a local airstrip rather than a full-service passenger airport. Travellers using it should confirm arrangements in advance and plan for basic services, with most amenities available in Zabré town itself.
