## Description

Operated by the United States Air Force, Andersen Air Force Base (UAM) sits in northern Guam and is a strategic military installation rather than a commercial cargo airport. Its activity is military and defence-logistics in nature, and it offers no scheduled airline or freighter services accessible to freight forwarders. Commercial air cargo to and from Guam moves instead through Antonio B. Won Pat International Airport (GUM) near Hagåtña, served by UPS, FedEx and Atlas Air and cleared by the Guam Customs and Quarantine Agency. For logistics planning, UAM should be treated purely as a military base, not a freight option.
