Félix-Houphouët-Boigny International Airport lies in the tropics at 5.26° N, 3.93° W, on Africa/Abidjan time (UTC+0). Tropical airports contend with heat and humidity, both of which thin the air and lengthen takeoff runs, and with convective storms that build fast in the afternoon.
Félix-Houphouët-Boigny International Airport has 1 runway. The longest, 03/21, measures 9,843 ft by 164 ft, which puts the field in the widebody capable category: twin-aisle aircraft can use it, and narrowbodies have length to spare. The surface is asphalt. It is lit for night operations.
Runway 03/21 is aligned roughly north-east/south-west, which is the clearest hint you get about the prevailing wind here: runways are built to face the wind that blows most often, because aircraft take off and land into it. Every runway here shares that north-east/south-west alignment, so a strong crosswind means a crosswind landing rather than a switch to another strip.
