The airstrip of the Makokola Retreat, located at Lake Malawi north of Mangochi and Nkopola, is Malawi’s third international airport. International charter or private flights can now fly directly into Makokola and clear customs and immigration right at the hotel. The runway can take anything up to ATR 42, Dakota DC 3 and King Air aircrafts and offers the possibility of refuelling for both Avgas and Jet A1 fuel. The other two international airports in Malawi are Chileka International Airport in Blantyre and Kamuzu International Airport in Lilongwe.
