Best Time to Visit
The NGE-Ngaoundéré Airport is a medium airport that features a 2,700-meter long runway. It services flights going to or coming from Douala, Garoua, Maroua, Yaounde and N'Djamena. The airport's 1.6-kilometer strip is capable of accommodating airplanes such as the Boeing 737 and similarly sized aircraft, but the economic decline led the airport to become one that has seen lesser and lesser traffic throughout the years. Cameroon Airlines frequented the airport before their operations ceased in 2008.
