Entebbe International Airport (EBB) holds a special place due to several unique aspects:
* Geographical Location: It famously lies astride the Equator, earning it the nickname "Airport on the Equator," which is a unique distinction. It also borders Africa's largest freshwater lake, Lake Victoria, offering scenic views.
* Historical Significance: EBB is etched in history as the site of the dramatic "Operation Entebbe" in 1976, where Israeli commandos successfully rescued hostages from a hijacked Air France plane. This daring mission put the airport on the global map.
* Gateway to Uganda: As Uganda's sole international airport, it serves as the primary gateway for tourism and business, connecting the country to the rest of the world.
* Hub for Wildlife Connectivity: Its strategic location near national parks like Queen Elizabeth and Virunga (in DRC) makes it a vital point for wildlife corridors, including the movement of animals like tree-climbing lions.
