## Description

Boa Vista earns genuine cargo relevance precisely because Roraima is hard to reach any other way. The international airport, named after aviation pioneer Atlas Brasil Cantanhede and opened in 1973, is served by Azul, Gol and LATAM, and hosts Azul Cargo's first Roraima branch, opened in 2015. That operation handles express shipments, palletised freight and both domestic and international e-commerce flows. With the BR-174 to Manaus as the only major road link, air cargo is a real supply line rather than a convenience. The airport's position near the Venezuelan and Guyanese borders adds cross-border logistics to its role. International status means customs and clearance are handled on site. For forwarders, BVB is the practical air-cargo point of reference for northern Amazonia.
