Djibouti-Ambouli International Airport is a joint civilian and military facility located in the Ambouli district, about 6 km south of Djibouti City. It is the country's only international airport and handles all scheduled passenger services for the nation.
The airport occupies roughly 10 square kilometres and shares its runways with a significant multinational military presence. Camp Lemonnier, the US Combined Joint Task Force-Horn of Africa base, sits on the southern perimeter. France, Japan, and Italy also maintain military facilities here. Military operations account for approximately 75% of total aircraft movements.
A single passenger terminal handles all commercial flights. Airlines connect Djibouti to Africa, Europe, and the Middle East, with Ethiopian Airlines operating the most frequent service to Addis Ababa. Air France provides the only non-stop link to Europe via Paris. Qatar Airways, Turkish Airlines, and flydubai serve Gulf and Middle East connections.
