Airport guide

Lilongwe International Airport (FWKI) is a medium airport in Lilongwe, Malawi. Pilots and dispatchers reference it by ICAO code FWKI or IATA code LLW. It sits in Africa.

Lilongwe International Airport is a regional commercial airport that doubles as a busy private-aviation base. Operators benefit from full instrument approaches and an FBO infrastructure scaled for regular jet traffic, often without the congestion of the nearest major hub.

Lilongwe International Airport sits at 4,035 ft above sea level. Hot-and-high conditions can meaningfully reduce takeoff performance in summer — planners should factor density altitude into payload and fuel decisions.

Local operations run on Africa/Blantyre. Scheduled airline service is light enough that it rarely interferes with charter movements, though planners should still expect to coordinate with the handling agent for international turnarounds.
