## Description

Set in the cattle-and-farming country of the Azuero Peninsula, Alonso Valderrama Airport (IATA: CTD) serves Chitré, the commercial centre of a region known for its folklore festivals. Air Panama operates the main link to Panama City, and traffic is almost entirely regional passenger service. The airport has no dedicated air-cargo terminal, so freight needing air transport is routed through Tocumen International Airport (PTY) near the capital, about four hours away by road. Agricultural exports from Azuero move overland and via Pacific seaports rather than by air.
