Airports in Uganda
3 airports with IATA codes · 21 routes total
This directory lists every IATA-coded airport in Uganda recorded in the OpenFlights dataset, with city, exact latitude/longitude, the count of unique destinations served, and one-click flight-distance tools to anywhere in the world. The range spans from major international hubs serving hundreds of distinct destinations down to small regional and local airports serving a handful of short-haul links — 3 Uganda airports in total.
The three most-connected airports in Uganda by scheduled-route count are Entebbe International Airport (EBB), Arua Airport (RUA), and Kasese Airport (KSE), together accounting for 21 of the 21 unique source-airport → destination pairs from Uganda in the dataset. On the map above, pins 1 – 3 mark the top hubs; small dots are every other listed airport.

About flying via Uganda
Distances between any two airports — within Uganda or to anywhere else in the world — are computed on this site with the Vincenty geodesic formula, which models Earth's oblate-spheroid shape (WGS-84) and converges to within roughly 0.5 mm. Flight times are estimated against typical aircraft cruise speeds for each distance band (short, medium, long, and ultra-long-haul); they are first-order approximations, not Air Traffic Control flight-plan times, and exclude taxi, holding, and routing detours. CO₂ emissions use the UK DEFRA 2024 conversion factors for business travel by air, broken down by economy, premium economy, business, and first class, including the radiative-forcing uplift.

Note that this dataset is a snapshot: schedules change frequently, so always confirm current operations with the airline or the airport's own website before booking or planning.

airports.dat dataset, a community-contributed reference cross-checked against official AIPs and ICAO codes. Distances between any two airports are computed in-app with the Vincenty geodesic formula on the WGS-84 reference ellipsoid, converging to within roughly 0.5 mm — well below any practical flight-planning tolerance. For independent verification of coordinates, see ourairports.org or the airport's official Aeronautical Information Publication.
