## Description

Gold from the surrounding Lupa field has shaped Chunya district for decades, yet the local airstrip has never grown beyond a basic field used by light aircraft and government flights. With no scheduled services and no freight handling, its cargo relevance is minimal. Consignments from southwestern Tanzania are routed via Songwe/Mbeya (MBI) and, for long-haul, Dar es Salaam (DAR).
