It provides essential air access for nearby communities, with light aircraft and charter operations rather than scheduled airline service.

If you’re a frequent visitor, build a relationship with the local airstrip committee or village leaders and confirm runway conditions before scheduling flights; conditions can change quickly after heavy rain.
