Airport contact
West African hub for ASKY Airlines and a secondary Ethiopian Airlines gateway. An estimated ~30% of traffic transits rather than O&D — this is an unsourced estimate, treat as indicative only. Single runway (04/22, no crosswind alternative); published length varies 3,000-3,001m across sources (used 3,001m, the majority figure) — confirm against current AIP Togo (ASECNA). ILS/approach-minima status is not published in any commercial source found, so confirm directly against AIP Togo (ASECNA) before low-visibility ops.

Pool Pétrolier (Lomé)

ASKY Airlines
In-house, ASKY: the pan-African carrier is hubbed at LFW (28 destinations, fleet transitioning from 15 to 30 Boeing 737-family aircraft) and recruits for an internal "Superviseur de la conformité maintenance" (maintenance-compliance supervisor) role at its Lomé base. Day-to-day in-house transit/line maintenance for its own fleet at its home base is standard industry practice and plausible, but is not independently documented beyond the job-listing signal, and this is self-service for ASKY's own aircraft rather than a third-party service other operators can book — kept as unconfirmed rather than dropped.
