## Description

Business jets and flight schools, not freighters, define Cascais Airport (IATA: CAT, ICAO: LPCS) at Tires, the busiest general-aviation field in Portugal after Lisbon and Porto. Sevenair Air Services runs the only scheduled commercial flights from here, small turboprop links to the Algarve and the northern interior. The site lies about 20 km west of central Lisbon in the parish of São Domingos de Rana, some 25 minutes away via the A5 motorway. Its single 1,400-metre asphalt runway (17/35) limits operations to turboprops and light business jets, well below freighter dimensions. With no cargo terminal, air freight handling agent or customs post, the airport is not cargo-capable. Air freight for the Lisbon metropolitan area is handled and cleared at Humberto Delgado Airport (LIS), with Porto (OPO) as Portugal's second cargo option.
