Located roughly 20–25 km east of the city center, transfer times can be around 20–40 minutes by taxi depending on traffic, or 30–60 minutes by shared shuttle and bus services; fares usually range from modest flat taxi rates to very low-cost public buses. The airport is generally convenient for international travel and offers more amenities than smaller fields, though peak-hour congestion and occasional delays can affect comfort and predictability for tight connections.
Nouakchott–Oumtounsy International Airport (NKC) serves as Mauritania’s primary international gateway and typically handles the city’s scheduled long-haul and regional flights, while smaller airstrips are used for domestic or military services. Airlines operating here are usually regional carriers and a handful of international airlines connecting to West Africa and Europe; fares can be perceived as moderate to high compared with nearby hubs due to limited competition. The airport lies about 25–30 km southeast of Nouakchott’s center; taxis and shared minibuses are the main options, often taking 30–45 minutes depending on traffic and costing roughly a few dollars to moderate local fares. Pros: straightforward layout and direct international connections; cons: limited public transport frequency and fewer airline choices than larger regional hubs.
