## Description

Congo's offshore oil belt sets the tone for air freight at Antonio Agostinho-Neto International Airport (PNR/FCPP): the Pointe-Noire field doubles as a logistics base for offshore operators, with helicopter shuttles to production platforms running alongside fixed-wing traffic. Opened in 1934 and given a new passenger terminal in 2006, it is the Republic of the Congo's second-busiest airport after Maya-Maya in Brazzaville. Cargo handling is contracted to Congo Handling, a subsidiary of France's Groupe Europe Handling, while Equaflight and Trans Air Congo are based here and fly scheduled, charter and freight services; no regular intercontinental freighter operation is confirmed, so much of the tonnage travels as belly cargo. The airport's real strength is multimodal — Pointe-Noire is the country's principal deep-water port, and the Congo-Océan railway (CFCO) together with National Road 1 links the city to Brazzaville over roughly 500 kilometres. Shippers heading inland weigh PNR against Maya-Maya International (BZV), while Libreville (LBV) in Gabon serves as a consolidation fallback. Oilfield equipment, spare parts and dangerous goods dominate the shipment mix, and clearance runs through the Congolese customs administration.
