Gateway to southeastern Gabon's mining and forest heartland.

Location
Lastourville, Gabon
Lastourville Airport (IATA: LTL, ICAO: FOOR) is a small domestic airport serving the town of Lastourville in the Ogooué-Lolo Province of southeastern Gabon. It provides essential air connectivity for a region that is otherwise difficult to access due to limited road infrastructure through dense equatorial forest. The airport handles light domestic traffic, primarily serving passengers traveling to and from Libreville and other Gabonese towns. It plays a practical role in supporting the local economy, which is tied to forestry and manganese mining activities in the region. Facilities are basic, reflecting the airport's status as a secondary domestic aerodrome. Scheduled and charter services operate on an infrequent basis, making the airport a vital but modest piece of Gabon's domestic aviation network.

The airport has a single small terminal building suited to low-volume domestic passenger traffic.
