Tete Chingozi Airport Smoking Policy

Tete Chingozi Airport is a small airport in central Mozambique, with traffic driven largely by the coal-mining and energy industries of Tete province alongside domestic flights and a Johannesburg link. Smoking is not permitted inside the terminal, but it is tolerated in the open air outside the building. Given the airport’s small size and low passenger volumes, finding an open-air spot to smoke is straightforward, though there are no indoor smoking rooms and no formally marked outdoor zone.
