## Description

Three runways, an elevation of 3,931 ft and no cargo warehouse sum up Alliance Municipal Airport (AIA/KAIA) in Box Butte County, Nebraska — a public general aviation field whose only scheduled service is a federally supported Essential Air Service link to Denver. There is no freight terminal, no temperature-controlled storage and no customs facility on site, so commercial air cargo is not handled here. Air freight for the Nebraska Panhandle is therefore imported through Denver International (DEN), roughly 400 km to the southwest, and trucked in over US 385 and Nebraska Highway 2. Western Nebraska Regional (BFF) at Scottsbluff, about 90 km west, and Rapid City Regional (RAP) in South Dakota, some 260 km north, are the closest alternatives, though neither is a cargo airport either. Alliance itself is better known as a BNSF Railway division point, and bulk traffic from the surrounding cattle and grain country moves by rail rather than by air. For urgent spare parts, forwarders typically combine an airport-to-airport leg into DEN with a road feeder service run into Alliance.
