## Description

Ayr (IATA AYR, ICAO YAYR) is a small airfield in the sugarcane country of the Burdekin Shire in north Queensland, Australia, used by general aviation, agricultural operators and air ambulance services. It has no scheduled service, no cargo handling and no customs facility, so its commercial air freight role stays minor. Time-critical consignments are trucked up the Bruce Highway to Townsville (TSV) some 85 km to the north-west, while Brisbane (BNE) is the usual gateway for international air freight and customs clearance.
