## Description

Serving Trelew, Rawson and nearby Puerto Madryn in Patagonia's Chubut province, Almirante Marcos A. Zar Airport (REL) sits in a region built on wool, fishing and the Aluar aluminium smelter. Scheduled traffic is dominated by Aerolíneas Argentinas links to Buenos Aires, while air cargo is limited to belly capacity on passenger flights, with no dedicated freight terminal. Bulk exports such as aluminium and seafood move mainly through the deep-water port of Puerto Madryn, while time-critical airfreight is consolidated via Buenos Aires-Ezeiza (EZE). For forwarders, REL is a regional feeder rather than a freight point.
