Pointe Noire is a paradice!
Gizmo - I will second the last comment - I have been flying in and out of PNR for years and it really is a paradice compared with some other parts of Africa.
I myself and my crew love PNR for a night - stop as it really is so safe compared with home on the other side of the river - If you get a chance to fly there take it - only Port Gentil offers serious competition.
And by the way Equa Flight is a pretty good company also.
