## Description

On paper Akure (IATA: AKR) has been earmarked as a perishable-cargo and aerotropolis project; in practice it is a domestic passenger field served only by Green Africa Airways and Overland Airways to Lagos and Abuja. No freighter airline operates here and there is no working cargo terminal yet. For Ondo State's cocoa and farm exports, capacity sits at Lagos (LOS), the country's main freight gateway. A 2023 development contract aims to staff and build out the cargo ambition over time. Until then, AKR's value to shippers is modest feeder connectivity.
