Remote gateway serving the Lisala region of northern Congo.

Location
Lisala, Democratic Republic of the Congo
Lisala Airport (IATA: LIQ, ICAO: FZGA) is a small domestic airport serving Lisala, a provincial capital in Mongala Province in the northern Democratic Republic of the Congo. The airport provides essential air connectivity to a region where road infrastructure is limited and river transport on the Congo River remains a primary alternative. The facility operates at a basic level, handling light aircraft and occasional regional turboprop services. It plays a vital role in linking Lisala to Kinshasa and other Congolese cities, supporting government, humanitarian, and commercial travel in an otherwise isolated area. As with many airports in the DRC, infrastructure is modest and services are limited. International aid organizations and missionary aviation operators have historically used the airport to access communities in the surrounding region.
Getting to & from
Ground transport from Lisala Airport into town is primarily by road via informal taxis and motorcycle taxis given the short distance to the city center.
Airlines here
