Distance & flight time from HVA
Analalava Airport
HVA is Analalava Airport, a remote airstrip serving the coastal town of Analalava in northwestern Madagascar. This small facility provides an essential air link for a region largely cut off from Madagascar's main road network, especially during the rainy season when overland travel becomes nearly impossible. Analalava sits along the Mozambique Channel and is surrounded by mangroves, fishing communities, and limited infrastructure typical of Madagascar's less developed coastal areas. HVA typically sees light aircraft traffic, often chartered flights or small regional carriers, since scheduled service to such remote Malagasy towns tends to be sparse and subject to change based on demand and seasonal conditions.
