## Description

BGC and LPBG are the codes to know for Bragança Airport, the gateway to Portugal's remote Trás-os-Montes border region near the Montesinho natural park. Sitting at roughly 680 metres, it serves general aviation and occasional regional flights only — no commercial air cargo is handled here. For air freight to or from the region, Porto's Francisco Sá Carneiro Airport (IATA: OPO), about 200 km west via the A4 motorway, is the nearest full cargo gateway.
