## Description

Melons, tropical fruit, sea salt and oil from the Potiguar Basin define the economy around Mossoró, the second-largest city of Rio Grande do Norte. Dix-Sept Rosado Airport (MVF) handles this catchment almost entirely as passenger traffic, with Azul operating several weekly flights to Recife. The airport has no dedicated freight terminal, integrators or cargo handlers, so air cargo for the region is consolidated through Natal International Airport (NAT), roughly 280 road kilometres to the south-east. Freight forwarders therefore treat MVF as a trucking feeder, while the fruit exporters route their cold chains via Natal and the coastal ports. Its name honours Jerônimo Dix-Sept Rosado, a state governor from a locally prominent political family.
