Bamenda Airport (IATA: BPC, ICAO: FKKV) is an airport serving Bamenda, the capital of the Northwest Province in Cameroon. The airport was previously served by Camair-Co starting in 2017, offering passenger services to Douala and Yaoundé.[3] On December 1, 2019, a Camair-Co aircraft was fired upon while approaching Bamenda Airport for landing. No casualties occurred, and the aircraft landed safely despite damage to its fuselage.[4] All operations were suspended due to the Anglophone Crisis in 2020.
