Flying from Djibouti
The country of Djibouti on the horn of Africa is a vibrant and welcoming location that has seen a steady increase in tourism over the past few years. Its fascinating history and proactive, positive attitude has made it an attractive destination for both business entrepreneurs and tourists alike.
The country is served by the small but very efficient Djibouti–Ambouli International Airport (which is located approximately nine kilometres from the capital). Passengers flying from Djibouti with Qatar Airways will find this to be a great starting point for their journey, with welcoming and attentive staff intent on providing a very personal service to passengers.
Transportation and parking
The most practical way to get to the airport is by taxi. These can be arranged in advance by your hotel reception or concierge service. Limousine services are also available for VIPs, and the airport is used to receiving high-ranking officials and VIP guests.
Limousines and taxis all stop directly outside the main building. Because the airport is also used by the military, civilian parking is somewhat limited and strictly controlled, therefore it is probably best to make alternative arrangements for your vehicle and travel to the airport by taxi, rather than driving.
Arriving at the airport
Passengers flying from Djibouti with Qatar Airways depart from the main terminal Departures lounge. The airport’s compact size means that it is relatively easy to find your way around, and check-in is a quick process that tends to be hassle free. However, because the airport is also a military base, security is very tight, so expect to be asked for your papers at various intervals throughout the check-in process and during your wait.
Allow around two hours before your flight is due to board to check in and clear customs and security checks.
Facilities and amenities
Facilities are limited at the airport, with food and drink being provided by some vendors. The waiting area is spacious and comfortable, and there are ATMs throughout the terminal and a currency exchange service.
