Bujumburaβs Melchior Ndadaye International Airport (BJM) is Burundiβs primary international gateway, typically handling a mix of regional carriers and occasional international flights rather than large global hub services. It is located about 10β12 km north of Bujumburaβs city center, with taxi rides commonly taking 20β35 minutes depending on traffic; expect modest fares that are usually lower than those at major African hubs. Shared minibuses and private transfers can be arranged, though schedules may be irregular. Pros: convenient proximity to the city and straightforward layout for arrivals and departures. Cons: limited onward connectivity and fewer passenger amenities compared with larger regional airports, so planning connections and services in advance can be prudent.
