Bourem (ICAO GABR) is a plain desert strip on the Niger river in northern Mali's Gao region. It has no scheduled service, no cargo terminal, no cold-chain capacity, no IATA code and no customs post; government, military and relief flights are the most it sees, so its freight relevance is nil. Northern Mali also remains persistently insecure, which effectively rules out civil air-logistics planning. Consignments for the region move via Gao Airport (GAQ) roughly 100 kilometres downstream and, as a rule, through Bamako-Sénou (BKO), where customs clearance and international connections are available.
