## Description

Aliwal North (FAAN) is a small municipal airfield in the eastern part of South Africa's Eastern Cape, used by private aircraft, agricultural operators and occasional medical flights. It has no scheduled services and no freight handling, so its air cargo relevance is limited. Consignments for the district are routed through Bloemfontein (BFN), some 230 km to the northwest, or East London (ELS) on the coast, with road haulage on either side.
