## Description

Drayton Valley Industrial Airport (IATA YDC) in Alberta serves an oil-and-gas district west of Edmonton, used by corporate charters, air ambulance and industry flights as well as general aviation. There are no scheduled services, no cargo terminal, no customs office and no dangerous-goods handling, so air freight in the proper sense does not take place here. Consignments for the region run through Edmonton International (YEG) about 130 kilometres to the north-east, Alberta's air cargo station, and through Calgary (YYC); heavy oilfield equipment arrives by truck on Highways 22 and 39 in any case.
