Bata Airport (IATA: BSG, ICAO: FGBT) is the second largest airport in Equatorial Guinea, after Malabo Airport, and is the only other paved landing strip.
The airport is located some way north of Bata and a short way south of Ulonde, it has a 2.3Km runway that operates only during the daytime and in good light. The state carrier and four other private companies make up the majority of Batas' industry, transporting passengers from Bioko's international airport or the two 800m strips on Annobon or Mongomo. The airport is large enough to accommodate a Boeing 737. Bata served 15,000 passengers in 2001. In July 2002, all staff at the airport were arrested for allowing the leader of the Popular Union, an opposition party, to board a flight to the Gabon. The tower's frequency is 118.8 VHF.
