## Description

On the western shore of Bristol Bay, where the Nushagak River meets the world's richest sockeye grounds, Dillingham Airport (IATA: DLG, ICAO: PADL) handles the entire heartbeat of a roadless fishing town. Ravn Alaska and other regional carriers connect to Anchorage, Everts Air Cargo lists Dillingham among its scheduled freight stops, and bush planes radiate to surrounding villages. Air shipments lean toward fresh salmon, cannery spares and seasonal supplies, while frozen volume leaves by sea. Each June the town of about 2,300 nearly doubles as the fleet and processing crews arrive — and in spring, the Togiak herring fishery adds another freight peak.
