## Description

Two parallel runways (13L/31R and 13R/31L) at 1,009 m elevation, and not a single air waybill: Afyon Air Base (AFY / LTAH) on the edge of Afyonkarahisar in western Anatolia is closed to civil traffic and operated by the Turkish Air Force, mainly as a training base. There is no scheduled or charter freight, no customs post and no handling agent on site; the IATA code AFY appears in databases but has no booking relevance. The surrounding province lives from marble quarrying and processing, agriculture and thermal-spa tourism, and those goods leave by road and rail — Afyonkarahisar is one of Turkey's principal railway junctions and sits on the motorway corridors linking Izmir, Ankara and Antalya. Shippers route air cargo through Ankara Esenboğa (ESB, about 250 km), Izmir Adnan Menderes (ADB, about 330 km) or Istanbul (IST) for the widest choice of intercontinental freighters. A road feeder service from those gateways is the normal way to bring consignments from the Afyonkarahisar area into the air freight chain.
