## Description

At roughly 1,100 m above sea level and a short hop from the Algerian frontier, Bouarfa Airport (UAR/GMFB) is one of the quietest fields in eastern Morocco. Scheduled and freight services are essentially absent; the runway sees occasional charter, government and medical flights serving a sparsely populated mining and desert zone. Air cargo for the region is funnelled through Oujda Angads (OUD), with larger consignments moving via Casablanca (CMN). Bouarfa is remembered as a former manganese-mining centre and a staging point toward the Figuig oasis.
