Bilma is a desert strip at the Bilma oasis in the Kawar region of north-eastern Niger, used by light aircraft, government flights and occasional supply runs. There is no scheduled service, no cargo handling, no warehousing, no customs post and no IATA or ICAO code, so it has no commercial freight relevance. The oasis is reached over long desert tracks from Agadez, and its traditional salt trade still moves by caravan and truck. Air freight for Niger clears at Niamey Diori Hamani International (NIM), with Agadez Mano Dayak International (AJY) the nearest larger airport.
