Remote desert gateway serving eastern Morocco's Bouarfa region.
Location
Bouarfa, Morocco
Bouarfa Airport is a small regional airport located in the eastern part of Morocco, serving the town of Bouarfa in Figuig Province. It sits in an arid, desert-like landscape near the Algerian border and primarily serves limited domestic traffic.
The airport has IATA code UAR and ICAO code GMFB, and operates under the broader network of Moroccan airports managed by ONDA (Office National des Aéroports). Due to Bouarfa's remote location and small population, the airport sees very limited scheduled commercial activity.
Bouarfa itself is a mining town historically associated with manganese extraction, and the airport has served logistical as well as passenger purposes over the years. Connectivity remains sparse compared to major Moroccan hubs.
Terminals
