CKY Conakry

How deep the CKY board really is

The table above says where a courier can fly from CKY. This reads the same 11 destinations back for the questions a dispatcher asks second: how much of the board rests on one airline, how much of it runs less than daily, whether the return leg is as thick as the outbound, what the clock here does to a Gulf working day and which of the destinations shut at night, all of it computed on 2026-09-07 from AeroDataBox scheduled route statistics.

• 6of the 11 destinations are flown by one airline
• 6destinations run less than once a day
• 0destinations have four or more departures a day
• 27.3%of the destinations name ASKY, the largest presence here

Who holds the departures at CKY

14 airlines appear on the CKY board and they do not hold it evenly. ASKY is on 3 of the 11 destinations, 27.3 per cent of them, and on 1 of those it is the only airline flying the sector. The destinations it appears on carry 2.4 of the 12.4 departures a day this airport files, though other airlines fly some of the same sectors, so read that as reach rather than as a share of the aircraft.

The next largest presence is Air Senegal on 2 destinations. 6 of the 14 airlines at CKY appear on a single destination each, which is the long tail every airport carries, and none of it is a rebooking option when the sector you need is the one that fell over.

That is a middling concentration at CKY: one airline on 27.3 per cent of the destinations and the other 72.7 per cent spread across 13 airlines. A cancellation inside the ASKY network is often survivable inside the same booking, but on the 8 destinations ASKY does not touch, a rebooking means moving to a carrier the desk has to check for a through fare first.

How much of the CKY board is daily

Of the 11 destinations, 5 are flown at least once a day and 6 are not, 1 of them running once a week or less. The median destination on the CKY board is flown 6 times a week.

An average of 0.14 flights a day is the schedule statistic, and it is worth translating it before anything is promised to anybody: CKY to Tunis (TUN) is about one a week, so a missed departure there is not a delay of hours, it is the next slot.

The five busiest destinations carry 9.4 of the 12.4 departures a day, 75.9 per cent of the whole board. More than half of everything that leaves CKY is aimed at those five places, so the depth on the board above is thinner than the destination count suggests, and a hand carry that is not going to one of them is planned around a single departure time.

The five destinations out of CKY where one airline holds the sector and files fewer than seven departures a week, with the weekly figure taken as the average daily rate multiplied by seven rather than as a fixed timetable.

The way back from CKY

The desk holds the return direction for 10 of the 11 destinations, and a courier plans the way back on those figures rather than on the outbound. On one of them the return into CKY runs thinner than the outbound by more than a quarter. The widest gap is Dakar (DSS) at 3.9 out a day against 2.9 back.

It runs the other way as well: Tunis (TUN) files 0.43 a day back into CKY against 0.14 outbound, which is the shape that strands a courier at this end rather than at the far end.

The clock at CKY

CKY keeps Africa/Conakry time, four hours behind Dubai all year.

When it is 09:00 on a Dubai working morning it is 05:00 at CKY, so a nine to six day at each end overlaps for five hours. A customs question raised in the last four hours of the Dubai afternoon reaches nobody at CKY until the next morning, which is the practical limit on a same day instruction here.

The night at CKY

2 of the destinations from here carry a documented night restriction of their own, which is a departure time question at this end rather than an arrival problem at the other.

Into Paris (CDG) the door shuts at 00:00 local, so the last departure from CKY that lands inside it leaves around 15:55, on a modelled block of 6h 05m. Into Brussels (BRU) the door shuts at 23:00 local, so the last departure from CKY that lands inside it leaves around 14:37, on a modelled block of 6h 23m. Those two departure times out of CKY are worked backwards from the published window with the block time model this site uses everywhere, 720 to 880 km an hour by sector length with thirty minutes on the ground, so they are arithmetic rather than a timetable and the desk checks the published departure before it promises the landing.

Where CKY turns up on the rest of this site

The airport also sits behind the Guinea country desk, which sets out the customs practice, the working week and the road legs behind this airport.

To price a movement rather than read the board, the route calculator opens with CKY already set as the origin, and it works out the flying time, the distance and the delivery hour for any of the 11 destinations above.
