⭐ Core Definition: Dzaoudzi–Pamandzi International Airport

Dzaoudzi–Pamandzi International Airport (IATA: DZA, ICAO: FMCZ) is an airport located in Pamandzi, Mayotte, France on the southern tip of the island of Petite-Terre (or Pamanzi), east of Grande-Terre, the main island of Mayotte. It is the only airport in Mayotte with scheduled services, mainly to destinations within Africa to Réunion, another French island in the area. The airport was able to service aircraft up to the Boeing 777 in size until 2015.

A new runway (16/34) to the west of the original single runway was planned, and was built 2,600 metres in length to accommodate larger aircraft such as the Airbus A380 and Boeing 747. Once built, the older runway became a taxiway. There was also a new terminal built to replace the previous departure and arrival buildings. This project was completed in 2015. The headquarters of Ewa Air are located on the airport property.
