## Description

The forestry, pulp and fishing industries of the Biobío region give Carriel Sur (CCP) in Talcahuano its freight character. Chile's second-busiest airport sits about eight kilometres from central Concepción and runs a dedicated cargo terminal offering warehousing, customs brokerage and forwarding support. Most airfreight moves in the holds of scheduled passenger flights, supplemented by traffic that diverts here when Santiago closes for weather, since CCP is the country's primary alternate field. For bulk exports the nearby seaports of Talcahuano and San Vicente remain the main route, leaving air to handle time-critical and higher-value consignments.
