Chad's only international airport, a single 2,800 m runway (05/23) shared by civil traffic and the Chadian Air Force. Chad denounced its 1966 defense-cooperation accord with France on 28 November 2024; French fighter aircraft began leaving N'Djamena in December 2024, and the handover of Base Aerienne 172 (Sergent Adji Kossei) to Chad started 31 January 2025, ending France's direct military presence there by early 2025 (equipment relocation via the port of Douala reportedly continued for several more months) - plan for reduced foreign military air-traffic support versus the pre-2025 period. Pax figure (~250,000, 2024) is an estimate extrapolated from the last published ASECNA/ANAC figures (~219,000-234,000 in 2015-2016); Chad does not publish granular traffic statistics. No active conflict at the airport itself, but factor in wider Sahel/regional security risk (Lac Province, Sudan and CAR border areas) for routing and alternates.

Societe Alkhali Services
Same AC-U-KWIK listing publicly shows 'Ramp Services' and 'Business and General Aviation Services' among this handler's categories at NDJ. FBO Finder separately counts 2 private-jet terminals at N'Djamena, consistent with Alkhali being the second FBO alongside Tchad Handling Services. Scope of services not confirmed beyond the category tags, which are the only fields AC-U-KWIK exposes without a login.

Star Oil Tchad (Star Oil Group)
National aviation/road fuel distributor. Star Oil's own site confirms: 'Star Oil Group entered Chad on November 30, 2023 following the acquisition of Total Marketing Chad' and that the subsidiary 'operates in the 4 land and aviation fuel depots that it owns, supported by a fleet of 28 trucks that meet international standards'; Star Oil separately states it sells Jet A1 at 7 airports across the sub-region. Depot locations are not itemised by city on Star Oil's site, so N'Djamena presence is not directly confirmed there. An independent airport-level fuel-supplier listing (GAS Aviation) instead names AIR TOTAL, OLA ENERGY and Oilibya Services-DMCC as N'Djamena's aviation fuel suppliers, not Star Oil -- plausibly because TotalEnergies' dedicated airport-refuelling arm (distinct from the Total Marketing Chad retail/road-fuel business Star Oil bought) was not part of the 2023 sale. Downgraded from the draft's 'available' to unconfirmed pending an N'Djamena-specific source; the unverified 'Sept 2026 press release finalising the asset transfer' claim in the draft could not be corroborated and has been dropped.

Societe Alkhali Services
Confirmed as a real, distinct listing on AC-U-KWIK's own basic-info page for FTTJ (acukwik.com/Basic-Info/FTTJ/SOCIETE-ALKHALI-SERVICES), which shows the categories 'Business and General Aviation Services', 'Ramp Services' and 'Administration and Operations Services' for this handler. Full address/phone/email are gated behind AC-U-KWIK's paywall (rendered only as 'INTERNATIONAL' placeholders on the public page), so contact details are not independently verified.

ASECNA
Regional air-navigation agency confirmed to provide air-traffic and aeronautical-information/MET services at N'Djamena: the airport's own AIM contact is •••, and FBO Finder states Tchad Handling Service is 'named as the handling company in the ASECNA aeronautical information publication' for FTTJ. ASECNA also controls the N'Djamena/FTTT Flight Information Region as part of its standard member-state mandate. Correction from the draft: Wikipedia records the airport's owner as 'Government' (Chad), not ASECNA, and no source found here supports the draft's claim that ASECNA is recorded as the airport's operator -- that line has been removed. Included as the ATS/AIS/MET provider self-providing flight-support functions, not as a private ground handler. · H24

Radisson Blu Hotel N'Djamena
Confirmed live on radissonhotels.com: 175 rooms and suites, 8 km from N'Djamena International Airport, marketed as 'Stay in style at N'Djamena Airport'; the hotel's own services page separately lists airport shuttle service. It is one of the two internationally branded hotels in the city (with the former Kempinski, now Ledger Plaza -- see that entry) and a typical candidate for airline crew/layover use, but no specific published airline crew contract was found, so flagged unconfirmed. Phone corroborated by an independent Chad hotel-contacts listing alongside a second local number (•••); a different front-desk number (•••) also circulates on the hotel's Facebook page.

Ledger Plaza Hotel N'Djamena (formerly Kempinski Hotel N'Djamena)
CORRECTED from the draft's 'Kempinski Hotel N'Djamena': this property rebranded and is no longer Kempinski-operated. Wikipedia's article for it is titled 'Ledger Plaza Hotel N'Djamena, formerly the Kempinski Hotel N'Djamena' (177 rooms, opened 2004, city-centre location); current 2026 OTA listings (Agoda, Trip.com) and even the airport's own booking page (aeroport-ndjamena.com) list it as Ledger Plaza, not Kempinski, and Kempinski's own global site no longer lists an N'Djamena property. Kept in the dataset as the same real, internationally-standard city-centre hotel under its correct current name rather than dropped, since a genuine property with this profile still exists. No specific published airline crew contract found -- included as one of only two internationally branded hotels in the city, a common profile for crew accommodation, but flagged unconfirmed.
