## Description

BWE and EDVE identify Braunschweig-Wolfsburg Airport, a Lower Saxony field built around research rather than freight: it hosts the German Aerospace Center (DLR) and serves business aviation. There are no scheduled passenger services and no commercial cargo operations. The site sits close to the Volkswagen group in Wolfsburg, anchoring the regional economy. For commercial air freight, Hannover Airport (IATA: HAJ), about 60 km west, is the nearest full cargo gateway.
