Banjul International Airport operates as the primary aviation gateway for the country.

The airfield at Yundum stands as the only commercial air hub in the nation, handling all scheduled passenger traffic arriving from abroad. Constructed during the Second World War with pierced steel planking, the strip initially handled regional routes. Early international carriers relocated some operations to nearby territories with concrete runways before major renovation efforts modernized the facilities and airfield infrastructure.

Әрі қарай оқу

The facility gained strategic significance when aerospace engineers selected its extended strip as an emergency recovery zone for the space shuttle fleet. Long-haul commercial aviation also expanded through transatlantic routes connecting West Africa with North American cities. Today, international transit remains concentrated at this single terminal, requiring arriving residents and travellers to plan ground transport into urban districts.
