Worst Airports in Africa 2015

Port Harcourt International Airport, Nigeria (PHC), Is this really an Airport?

One look at the interior of the worst airports in Africa was often enough to convince our voters to splurge on a nearby hotel. Top complaints generally revolved around corruption, crowds, chaos, confusion and a total lack of cleanliness – 5 C's an airport definitely does not want to be associated with. Amenities across the board are decidedly scarce if not entirely non-existent, and many airports' architecture verges on decrepit. In fact, some voters got particularly creative and colourful in their written descriptions, likening Kinshasa International airport to the Thunderdome from Mad Max – a post-apocalyptic steel jousting cage. Though likely a bit dramatic, you'll want to arrive in these terminals equipped with your own snacks, your own entertainment, lots of patience and definitely a sense of humour.
