## Description

For centuries a caravan staging post on the trans-Saharan trade routes, the oasis of Ghadames now welcomes its visitors by air through Ghadames East Airport in Libya's far west. The town's old quarter — a maze of whitewashed alleys and rooftop walkways — holds UNESCO World Heritage status. Libyan Arab Airlines is the sole carrier, linking the oasis to Tripoli for business travellers, tourists and humanitarian missions. The airport has no dedicated freight capacity; regional air cargo moves via Mitiga in Tripoli.
