Worth knowing about Franceville
- The airport is 16 km west of Franceville near the village of M'Vengue, so the town name and the airport name are not the same place.
- Franceville is the eastern passenger terminus of the Trans-Gabon Railway, operated by SETRAG, and the run from Owendo takes 12 to 18 hours.
- Flights to Franceville and M'Vengue run every day of the week except Tuesdays and Thursdays, so a midweek arrival may mean waiting a day.
