Gateway to Cameroon's Northwest Region highlands.

Location
Bamenda, Cameroon
Bamenda Airport (IATA: BPC, ICAO: FKKV) is a domestic airport serving Bamenda, the capital of the Northwest Region of Cameroon. Situated in the highlands of western Cameroon, the airport provides essential air connectivity for a city that is otherwise accessible primarily by road. The airport operates limited scheduled domestic services, primarily linking Bamenda to Yaoundé and Douala, Cameroon's political and economic capitals respectively. Due to its relatively small scale, the facility handles modest passenger and cargo volumes. In recent years, flight operations at Bamenda Airport have been affected by security concerns related to the ongoing Anglophone crisis in the Northwest and Southwest regions of Cameroon, which has periodically disrupted travel in the area.
Terminals
The airport features a small, single terminal building suited to low-volume domestic traffic.
Getting to & from
Ground transport between the airport and Bamenda city center is primarily provided by taxis and private vehicles.
Airlines here
Camair-Co, the Cameroonian national carrier, has historically operated routes connecting Bamenda to Douala and Yaoundé.
