Worth knowing about Kenema
- Kenema Airport has an unpaved runway and takes domestic aircraft only, so scheduled arrivals here are not something to count on.
- Kenema sits 64 km east of Bo, and the practical route in is the road from Freetown through Bo rather than a flight.
- The country's only international airport is at Lungi, across an estuary from Freetown, so the road journey east starts with a water taxi, a ferry, or a three hour drive around the water.
