Felix Houphouet Boigny Airport

Abidjan’s Félix Houphouët-Boigny Airport, opened in the 1950s, is the country’s largest international gateway and a key West African aviation hub with two main terminals handling international and regional traffic. Located in the Port-Bouët district about 10 km south of downtown Abidjan, the airport offers straightforward access by taxi, shared minibuses and airport shuttles along major roads, making connections to the city fast for most travelers. As the primary base for national carrier Air Côte d’Ivoire and an important stop for regional operators, ABJ combines mid-sized airport convenience with competitive, often affordable fares on regional routes—ideal for budget-conscious flyers searching for cheap flights to West Africa.
