## Description

Set in the rice belt of Sri Lanka's Eastern Province, Ampara Airport (ADP) handles domestic flying rather than freight. There is no scheduled cargo service and no based freighter; the runway suits light turboprops and charters. Air shipments from the area move by road to Bandaranaike International (CMB) at Colombo, the country's only airport with a cargo terminal and customs clearance. For forwarders, ADP is therefore a feeder point at best, not a cargo station. The nearby Gal Oya reservoir, Sri Lanka's largest, anchors the surrounding farming economy.
