Getting Around
How to get to and from N'Djamena International Airport — taxis, public transport, shuttles and car rental.
Transport Options at NDJ
N'Djamena International Airport is connected to N'Djamena and the wider Chad transport network by multiple ground transport options.
Taxis are available outside the terminal for the short 10-15 minute ride into N'Djamena; no standard fare was confirmed, so negotiate before departure.
No confirmed car rental desks at the airport.
At only 3-4km from the city, NDJ is one of the most centrally located airports on this list — but note that France's long-standing military presence alongside the civilian terminal was formally handed back to Chad starting 31 January 2025, ending decades of co-located French operations there.
