Yaoundé's city-centre airport serving domestic and regional routes.

Location

Yaoundé, Cameroon

Yaoundé Ville Airport (IATA: YAO, ICAO: FKKY) is a domestic and regional airport located within the urban area of Yaoundé, the capital city of Cameroon. It serves as a complement to the larger Nsimalen International Airport (IATA: NSI), which handles most international traffic to and from Yaoundé. The airport primarily supports domestic flights connecting Yaoundé to other Cameroonian cities such as Douala, Garoua, and Maroua, as well as some sub-regional African routes. Its central location makes it convenient for passengers travelling within the country. Due to its in-city position, Yaoundé Ville Airport operates under restrictions typical of urban airfields, including limitations on aircraft size and noise considerations. It has historically been used by smaller regional carriers and charter operators.

Terminals

The airport has a modest single-terminal layout suited to low-volume domestic and regional passenger traffic.

Getting to & from
