## Description

Palmas–Brigadeiro Lysias Rodrigues Airport (PMW) is the capital gateway of Tocantins, opened in 2001 alongside Brazil's youngest state capital and now run under concession, most recently by Mexican operator ASUR. Its traffic is domestic — Azul, GOL and LATAM links to Brasília, São Paulo and Goiânia — and air cargo travels mainly as belly freight on these passenger services. There is no bonded cargo terminal or scheduled freighter operation, so international shipments clear and consolidate at nearby Brasília (BSB) and the national hub Viracopos. Receita Federal customs handling takes place at those airports rather than in Palmas. For forwarders, PMW is a dependable feeder for express and belly cargo serving the expanding agribusiness economy of Tocantins.
