## Description

Bananas, tomatoes, prawns and western rock lobster are what the Gascoyne ships, and almost none of it leaves through Carnarvon Airport (IATA: CVQ, ICAO: YCAR). Regional Express is now the sole scheduled operator at the field, linking the coastal town with Perth and with Monkey Mia on Shark Bay. There is no cargo terminal, no freighter service and no customs post: Carnarvon is not an international port of entry and is not cargo-capable. Mail, spare parts and small consignments travel as belly load on the regional turboprops. Refrigerated road transport along the North West Coastal Highway carries the region's produce the roughly 900 km to Perth (PER), where air freight is consolidated for export. Learmonth (LEA), serving Exmouth, is the next regional field to the north.
