Zambia, located in southern Africa,
is a beautiful country known for its natural wonders and wildlife. As a popular
destination for both tourists and business travelers, Zambia boasts a total of
11 civil airports and 1 military airport, each with its unique features and
services.
The 11 civil airports in Zambia are
spread across the country, with the largest being Kenneth Kaunda International
Airport (LUN, FLKK) in Lusaka, the capital city. Other major civil airports
include Harry Mwanga Nkumbula International Airport (LVI, FLHN) in Livingstone,
Chipata Airport (CIP, FLCP) in the Eastern Province, Kasompe (CGJ, FLKE) in
Chingola Town, Kasama Airport (KAA, FLKS) in the Northern Province, Mansa

Each airport has its terminal
building, offering various facilities and services to passengers and crew
members. These terminals provide a range of amenities, including restaurants,
shops, currency exchange offices, and lounges for premium passengers.
Zambia Air Force Base (FLLC) is
located in Lusaka and is primarily used for military purposes. The airport has
a single terminal building and is not open to civilian flights.
For crew members, entering Zambia
requires a valid visa. Crew members can apply for a visa on arrival, provided
they have a valid passport, a letter of invitation from the sponsoring company
or organization, and a copy of their flight itinerary. Alternatively, they can
apply for a visa in advance through the nearest Zambian embassy or consulate in
their home country.
Navigating visa procedures and
airport protocols can be a complex and time-consuming process. This is where
the services of a flight support company can be invaluable. International
