    Writer's Review

    So far, the airport has been well managed and tourists from around the world now have an easy access to the Pearl of Tourism state. As tourism kicks up in Bauchi, the airport will see more users and hopefully its current standard will still be maintained.

  • A close look at the arrival, departure, protocol and offices, gives you a sense of a small airport. But the parking lot and ample space housing the airport reminds you of Nnamdi Azikwe International Airport-Adamu Ayuba
