It has everything - a general waiting lounge, a VIP lounge, check in counters, a cafeteria, fuel depot, security check too!
Refueling over, aircraft checked, checked in baggage being loaded!
Passengers onboard! "Mind your head and keep your feet together", the Captain announces, "we are all set to go!"
In case you missed it, look closely: The famous Tiki Lounge and all the directions for parking and entry - no entry without permission! If it is that lucky hour of the day, you may get a cup of nicely brewed chai in a little glass!
The road from the UN compound. First round of checking before entering this gate is essential!
Time for security clearance and to check-in!
Garowe International Airport
This is the Old One, a new one has been in making ... may be already operating. Immigration used to have a room but the officer was always kind enough to go around collecting visa fee and stamping the passport, taking care not to use the whole page. If you were a frequent flyer to Garowe, you could get a discounted visa fee!
Passengers arriving at the airport and the aircraft coming to a halt ... arrivals are well synchronised!
Security check, ticket check, onboard!

I have been on the planes to Somalia and Somaliland, 6-24 seaters that go around like a matatu (maruti van type of public carriages that run like Delhi's Blue/Red line buses) from one stop to another dropping off and picking up people. But cleaner than Air India!! No air control support yet no accidents so far - much better record than our fancy airlines.

Curious. Do you work for UN?
I have been in one such plane which didnt have any seats during my skydive. We all stood like in a bus. Some even near the door foot boarding.
