💡 Local Tip
Carry cash in Central African CFA francs and your own drinking water; card payments and reliable concessions are generally unavailable at the airport. Also reconfirm any onward flight or charter the day before, as small Chadian airstrips can see schedule changes due to weather or fuel availability.
