El Aeropuerto Internacional Antonio Agostinho Neto (IATA: PNR, OACI: FCPP), es un importante aeropuerto ubicado en Pointe-Noire, República del Congo.[fr] Aéroport international Agostinho-Neto
L’aéroport international Agostinho-Neto (code IATA : PNR • code OACI : FCPP) dessert la ville de Pointe-Noire, en République du Congo. Les principales destinations au départ de cet aéroport sont Brazzaville, Libreville, Paris et Douala. En raison de l'irrégularité des transports routiers et ferroviaires entre la capitale politique du Congo et la capitale économique (Pointe-Noire), la liaison aérienne présente un intérêt économique majeur, et vital dans les périodes de crise ; à la fin des années 1990 et au début des années 2000, l'activité du chemin de fer Congo-Océan étant interrompue à la suite de la guerre civile, Brazzaville était pour une grande partie alimentée par un pont aérien avec Pointe-Noire. Un nouveau terminal a été inauguré en 2015 par le Président Denis Sassou-Nguesso, et la piste a été entièrement refaite en 2016[1].[it] Aeroporto di Pointe Noire
L'Aeroporto di Pointe Noire[2] (IATA: PNR, ICAO: FCPP) è un aeroporto cittadino congolese situato nella città marittima di Pointe-Noire, nella zona meridionale del Paese.Текст в блоке "Читать" взят с сайта "Википедия" и доступен по лицензии Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike; в отдельных случаях могут действовать дополнительные условия.
