Frequently travelling through this airport for the last 10years, I can tell you there's been a lot of innovations. Kudos to the management and genuine workers as more work is being done.
Good to hear this.
This is a great video. Well explained. Well done sir. Please could you also do in the future a video on checking out of the airport. Especially for international fights. Thank you.
Ooh. This is a good suggestion. I will do just that.
@@AviationInfo120good morning sir am a Cameroonian presently in Yaoundé i wish to have some information about air hottest training thanks for your attention
@@user-og2gn8jk3g hello. What do you mean by hottest ? What are you dreams. Never just follow a trend follow your dreams an accomplish them.
@@AviationInfo120 good morning sir i mean i wanna do a cabin crew training am in Yaoundé and I don't know what to do
@@user-og2gn8jk3g we have one school in Douala. But for my advise if you’ve the cash you can do it in Addis Ababa an Ethiopian aviation academy. You can search the school online to get more information. It’s a very reputation school
Please Can you do a video on how the control tower of the Douala international airport is functioning
czcams.com/video/gpqoyQ9fvno/video.html
Check this out. But they request is well noted.
hey men, thank you very much for this video, just a quick question, can you do all these check ins let's say if you're with family that wants to see you off?
This days the security both police and airport security unit. Allow just those traveling and staffs and people with airport related issues to get in.
That is the funniest things about DLA airport. No waiting place inside for people to wait their loves ones
@@AviationInfo120 thanks for clarifying that out, meaning my family would just have to see me off outside the Air port i would take it?
I an new here and thus is because today a family friend was scammed at the Yde airport.
He arrived, someone just rushed, asked to help him with his things n help him stamp his passport, wanders, that was yesterday till now the who collected his passport is no where to be found.
I needed this video. Thank you
Ooh. No. That’s really bad
@@AviationInfo120 can he still do another passport n travel Since it was virgin passport or is there any legal proceedings?
@@njokalizzy1662 why wikk he even give his passport to someone he doesn’t know. ? That was really ignorant of him. Yes he can do a new passport he should do a lost document for the missing passport then apply for a new passport
@@AviationInfo120 that we don't understand. Ok thanks for the directives
@@njokalizzy1662 welcome. Never give your things to someone you don’t know. Especially PID (personal identification documents)
👏👏👏
Thank you.
hello!
very informative video.
I have a query about restrictions on food stuff. What kind of "food stuff" is not allowed? can i carry "food stuff" in check-in luggage for personal use while arriving to Douala?
Not just at Douala intentional airport. Food stuffs an liquors /liquids more than 100ml are not authorized In carry on bags for security reasons.
not the carry-on bags, i'm asking about food stuff like chocolates, snacks and spices in check-in luggage.
@@supreme_engineer5914 snacks not permitted, chocolate permitted but not powder chocolate
@@supreme_engineer5914 spices not permitted because they smell an aircraft is like a confirmed box. So such a small is so unpleasant inside.
Greetings sir please which airline can one take from Cameroon to Nicaragua pls
Which country is that pls ?
Wow nice video. Please is the process thesame at the Yaounde international airport?
It should be similar.
But the lay out as in the video is different
Pls make a video for people that wants to travel from Douala airport to Nicaragua what documents are required
Valid visa, Covid test and vaccine valid passport. And justification documents for your trip.
For flight from Douala try searching with airlines.
@@AviationInfo120 thanks very much sir
Do the immigration officers ask questions?
Offcourse they do. It’s part of their duty
The DLA airport at some point is a mess. The first hall no air conditioning 🤦🏾♀️ Once you enter the gate towards the stairs, there is a police officer or Gerndam sitted there. NOTE once you reach there only the traveller is allowed in not even your spouse 😑😑.
U pass the screening security and go to those counters and pay 6k with you carry but food or cloths . You kilos will be weighed and packed with plastic there if you need it and it cost ABT 5k per Bag. To cut these short. Before you finally go for boarding:Make sure you handlugage and Ur backpack or handbag are alltogether 8kilo ( they're always looking for means to ask for STH) that's after you've checkt in Ur 23 kilos oh.
It’s all drama.
Like a whole big drama and stress
Which airline did you fly with please ?
I fly mostly with Brussels and Turkish airlines.
@@MsVille19 at mid night. It’s even better than during the day 😂😂.
@@AviationInfo120 not necessarily midnight. Those flights leave in the evening too. General the DLA Airport needs some upgrades in standard. Atleast let them leave the traveller with 1person(accompany) to enter the airport.
And what is the maximum or minimum weight a passenger is permitted to travel with
Be more specific. There’s no minimum. It depend if you’re a business class passenger, frequent travel ( gold, Diamond, platinum, black status etc ) so be more specific I will answer an whjch airline
the truth simply, after the first passport control where they put the exit stamp, the second police control (10'13'') is the one where they check if you are banned from leaving the territory and if you are on the interpol wanted list.....
Yes. Exactly

Hello. Pls what do you mean by declaring food stuffs??
The customs inspect travelers bags if you carry food stuffs then you’ll have to declare them by paying . It’s a mandatory requirement also some countries like US. you show prove of the food stuffs you carry upon arrival by presenting the declaration note
Pls what is the declaration fee?
An also if you’ve items that are forbidden it will be confiscated. For further investigations
@@AviationInfo120 please what's the fee?
@@nadeshbianka5233 normal 6,000XAF for a normal size bag of food items
What Car Rental services are available from Douala
We have normal airport Taxi but you can book a car from third parties website which could pick you up at the airport
@@AviationInfo120 I mean a car and a driver service for two weeks stay. Not just pick up . And do you know any third party service? Any recommendations?

Hello am new here
Okay. Welcome
Please is there any fee a passenger pays in the airport?
What destination. There’s no fee. Unless some destinations that airline ask for a caution
Aviation Info please where do i make PCR covid 19 test before travelling and how much do i paid for it and how long needed to get the test results?
At any government hospital. It’s 30,000XAF. Where are you located and where are you traveling to
@@AviationInfo120 thanks for your answer. I am in Germany and i intend to come holidays in cameroon
Are you vaccinated against Covid 10? If yes you don’t need a Covid test to come back
@@AviationInfo120 No i am not vaccinated
@@AviationInfo120 can you tell me how many days it take to obtained the covid 19 test result?
Please is any deposit of money needed when travelling from ethiopian Airlines in the Douala or Yaounde airport
Which destination are you traveling to ? But I doubt
Philippines
@@melvisfru4715 if all your documents are correct. i doubt if there is any caution to drop.
@@AviationInfo120 ok thanks very much after paying for the flight i was informed those going to Manila are to pay 1500dollars at the airport so i am really worried about that and don't really know how to get the right information
@@melvisfru4715yes there is a caution deposit of 1000,000 francs to pay one of my friends traveled in July and he was asked to pay that amount. It's really crazy what they are doing.
I wanted to know through the process at the airport, they don't ask you questions?
Offcouse question are being asked. Basic question. Where are you going to, purpose of traveling etc
Okay thanks
How much is charged for a yellow fever card?
Will I also be charged for my snacks and spices?
Yellow fever card is 13000. An you’ll be vaccinated if you’ve never taken the vaccine
if spices are in a somuch quantity you’ll need to declare it. Some destination countries require the declaration paper else they’ll destroy your things
The airport is an embarrassment. The departure halls each have just two toilets (one male, one female) to cater for up to 250 passengers. On arrival you don't have access to toilet facilities till after immigration control.
It’s all crazy. But we hope for future improvements an expansion. A small mall has better larger toilet than the airport. We really hope for improvements
Pls can u travel from Cameroon to Nicaragua with e visa at Douala airport
Just a question one of my friend was traveling from Douala Airport to Manila Philippines on the 12th oh July 2023 upon checking in he was asked to pay a sum of 1000,000 francs if not he wouldn't be allowed to board he was told by the Ethiopian Airlines customer service team upon checking in at the airport. Why do they charge a caution fees when my friend had all the travel documents such as Yellow fever vaccination certificate, covid pass, his proof of accommodation in the Philippines and all necessary requirements. It is bit strange first time I have seen a country charging caution fees even when Philippines is visa free to Cameroon nationals. My friend had to pay that sum of 1000,000 francs because he had no other options. Can someone please explain to me why does your country charge caution fees. The Ethiopian Airlines desk told thats part of Cameroon law when departing. Its strange if people pay that sum what will they have during their vacation its really unfair with your countries law. First time in my life I have heard about a caution fees to be paid at a airport.
Wow. It’s strange. I can’t answer this because I don’t work for Ethiopian an I don’t know their internal policy regarding passengers traveling to such destinations. But it’s Strange .
@@AviationInfo120 The Ethiopian Airlines informed my friend that it is part of the Cameroon government to charge a caution fees of 1000,000 francs to travelers traveling to Manila from Douala Airport because I tried to get in touch with the airport authorities in Douala but they don't speak to me in English it's very difficult.If people have to pay that large amount of deposit what will they have when they arrive in Philippines to spend on their vacation. It is the first country in the world I have heard is charging its citizens 1000,000 francs which is equivalent to 16000usd.
@@Mastermind-vv6fl did he get a receipt for the money. That strange ? Did he pay it at the government office if at Ethopian office or to an individual?
@@AviationInfo120 He was asked to pay at the check in counter of the Ethiopian Airlines in Douala Airport as it was a legal law of Cameroon Government. Yes the receipt showed he had some missing documents that's why they charged that sum but my friend had all the documents such as the covid vaccination pass,yellow fever vaccine, the return ticket, the hotel reservation receipt in Philippines everything but still he was charged that large amount. I'm really stressed out because I'm planning to invite one more friend from Douala to come visit during Christmas period but again I'm afraid if they would ask to pay that same amount again which is really unfair. Could you please let me know what documents are needed to travel from Douala to Manila because we watched your video and your explanation was very good and he did follow what you have mentioned in the video.
@@Mastermind-vv6fl I can’t say much about this because I don’t know all the requirements.
But from every indication it was fraud and as you said they showed him what documents he needed.
I will do an inquiry at Ethiopian Airways office an let you know my finding.
Or maybe your friend isn’t telling you the truth also.
Please can I travel with snacks in my son's hand luggage
No. Food items and snacks are not permitted in hand luggage.
This "airport" is an embarrassment and a disgrace. EVERYTHING IS OUTDATED
What is everything? Can you en more specific so that other reading could know please
@@AviationInfo120 the infrastructure and airport procedures is primitive,disorganiszd, outdated and chaotic. You can only find this in Cameroon.
@Aviation Info you look like someone with a good travelling experience. Be honest...is this what you see in Nairobi, Abidjan,Addis Abeba,lagos,Dakar etc etc.We are nothing short of a disgrace. If Ahidjo was still in power....this douala airport will be a visiting museum today.
Youre now more precise now. But I bet you ihe you’ve been to Bangui or Ndjamina airport then you’ll say something else
Indeed. The airport needs improvements
