## Description

Freight at Cochrane Airport (YCN/CYCN) depends on charter and support operators rather than a scheduled airline: weekly cargo flights, private and executive charters and medevac missions link this northeastern Ontario railway town with James Bay coastal communities that have no year-round road access. There is no scheduled passenger service, no dedicated cargo terminal, no permanent customs post and no international freight route; dangerous-goods and cold-chain handling are not confirmed. Shippers should expect small consignments in the hold of turboprop aircraft rather than palletised freight. Commercial air cargo for the wider region is handled at Timmins Victor M. Power Airport (YTS) some 100 kilometres to the west, with Toronto Pearson (YYZ) for larger or international shipments. On the ground, Highway 11 and the Ontario Northland railway provide pre- and on-carriage, Cochrane being the southern terminus of the Polar Bear Express to Moosonee. For forwarders the field matters as a feeder into coastal resupply, not as a cargo facility in its own right.
