Size and facilities
Medium-sized airports are regional hubs: one compact terminal, walkable distances and usually faster check-in than a major hub — but with fewer frequencies, so rebooking after a missed flight is harder. Aim for 90–120 minutes before departure.
Terminal plans, check-in locations and ground-transport timetables are published by the airport itself; for detail that must be right on the day, rely on the airport's own information. If something here looks wrong, please tell us via the Contact page and we will check it.
Tips
- If your destination is not in the table above, you will usually connect via Addis Ababa Bole International Airport (ADD) or another larger airport.
- Use the search box at the top of the page to compare alternatives: type a city name or IATA code.
- In peak season parking and rental cars run short at small fields too — book ahead if you are driving.
