Location

Ouesso, Republic of the Congo

Ouesso Airport (IATA: OUE, ICAO: FCOU) is a small domestic airport serving the town of Ouesso in the Sangha Department of the Republic of the Congo.

The airport handles limited scheduled and charter traffic, primarily linking Ouesso with the capital Brazzaville. It plays a critical logistical role for humanitarian organizations, logging industry operators, and government personnel working in the dense equatorial rainforest region near the borders of Cameroon and the Central African Republic.
