Primary international gateway for the world's newest nation.

Location
Juba, South Sudan
Juba International Airport (IATA: JUB, ICAO: HJJJ) is the main civil aviation facility serving Juba, the capital of South Sudan. It functions as the country's primary hub for both domestic and international air travel, handling the bulk of passenger and cargo movements in and out of South Sudan. The airport has historically operated with limited infrastructure, though expansion and rehabilitation efforts have been undertaken since South Sudan's independence in 2011. It serves a critical humanitarian and diplomatic role, supporting NGO operations, UN missions, and government travel in a country that lacks extensive road and rail networks. Despite ongoing development challenges, the airport handles flights to regional African destinations as well as connections to the Middle East, making it an essential lifeline for the landlocked nation.

Getting to & from
