## Description

Hundreds of thousands of pilgrims visit the riverside grotto of Bom Jesus da Lapa each year, and the western Bahia airport (LAZ) that shares the town's name leans heavily on that religious tourism. Traffic is regional, and air cargo is limited to belly freight with no dedicated freighter terminal. Commercial shipments for the region are routed through Salvador International. For forwarders, LAZ is a feeder rather than a handling point. Pilgrimage seasons and its São Francisco River setting shape operations more than logistics.
