Bachuma Gate Airport is a bush strip at the Tsavo East National Park gate of the same name in south-eastern Kenya, at roughly 380 metres elevation. It handles safari and charter flights by light aircraft; there is no cargo handling, no scheduled service, no cold chain and no customs post, so its freight relevance is nil. Air freight for the coast and the Tsavo area moves through Moi International in Mombasa (MBA), about 85 km to the south-east, and through Nairobi Jomo Kenyatta (NBO) for intercontinental consignments.
