๐ข Terminal Information
Dundo Airport (FNDU), also known as Camaquenzo I Airport, serves the city of Dundo, capital of Lunda Norte Province in Angola, positioned in the heart of one of Africa's most historically significant diamond mining regions where diamonds were first discovered in the Musalala River in 1912. Located in the former mining community that grew from a 1912 settlement following diamond discovery, the airport provides essential connectivity to this northeastern border city of 177,604 residents (2014 census) where mining operations historically produced close to 10% of the world's gem-quality diamond supply through 1980.
TAAG Angola Airlines resumed commercial service with Boeing 737-700 aircraft on August 10, 2017, following the airport's reopening after significant expansion and modernization works completed in 2012, establishing essential air links between this remote provincial capital and Luanda plus other Angolan cities. The facility serves the region's continuing diamond mining operations, government administration, and economic development initiatives, providing crucial transportation infrastructure for mining industry personnel, government officials, and residents of this strategically important border region.
Operational services include TAAG's scheduled flights plus charter operations supporting the diamond mining sector, regional development projects, and essential connections for this isolated provincial capital located near the Democratic Republic of Congo border. The airport enables access to the broader Chitato Municipality's mining concessions and serves as a lifeline for economic activities, emergency services, and administrative functions in this resource-rich region where aviation remains the most reliable form of long-distance transportation given challenging overland routes through Angola's interior diamond country.
