๐ข Terminal Information
Atbara Airport (ATB) serves the city of Atbara in northern Sudan, a strategic location at the confluence of the Nile and Atbara rivers. This regional airfield primarily supports local air transport needs, including government flights, humanitarian aid missions, and general aviation. It does not currently host scheduled commercial passenger services, with most civilian air travel in Sudan severely impacted by ongoing conflicts. The airport's infrastructure is basic, typically consisting of a paved runway and a modest building that functions as an administrative office and a rudimentary waiting area.\n\nOperational procedures at ATB are informal and adapted to the prevailing security and operational environment. There are no extensive security checkpoints, baggage handling systems, or commercial check-in counters. Passengers for charter or specific flights are usually processed manually by local authorities or flight operators. Security is handled by local military or police forces. Given the current situation in Sudan, any air travel is highly restricted and requires specific permissions, with operations often prioritizing essential services.\n\nAmenities at Atbara Airport are virtually non-existent for the general public. Travelers should expect no shops, restaurants, or currency exchange facilities. The climate in Atbara is extremely hot and dry for much of the year, and there is minimal shelter or air conditioning. It is imperative for anyone traveling through ATB to carry all necessary provisions, including water, and to have all ground transportation pre-arranged. The airport functions as a bare-bones operational point rather than a comfortable travel hub.

๐ข Terminal Information
Galegu Airport (DNX) serves the Dinder area near Sennar in Sudan. It functions as a very basic, remote regional airport, primarily supporting essential local air services.
IMPORTANT: As of the ongoing conflict in Sudan (since April 2023), the operational status of Galegu Airport and all civilian aviation in Sudan is highly uncertain and likely suspended. The airport's infrastructure and services may be severely impacted or non-functional due to military actions and the general security situation. Therefore, any previously existing basic terminal facilities, amenities, or security procedures are currently non-functional for civilian travel. Travelers should note that commercial flight operations are suspended indefinitely for safety and security reasons. Information regarding future operational status or restoration of services will depend entirely on the resolution of the conflict.
