## Description

In northeastern Ontario's clay-belt country, where farming, forestry and mining shape the economy, Earlton (Timiskaming Regional) Airport (IATA: YXR, ICAO: CYXR) serves the Temiskaming Shores area from an elevation of 244 metres. It mainly handles general aviation, charter and business flights, including exploration work in the Kirkland Lake gold camp, rather than scheduled traffic. There is no dedicated cargo terminal, no freighter service and no on-site clearance; anything flown moves as belly load on charters. Planned freight instead routes via North Bay (YYB) about 150 kilometres south, Timmins (YTS) or Sudbury (YSB), while international air cargo consolidates at Toronto Pearson (YYZ) and express volumes run through Hamilton (YHM), Canada's overnight hub for Cargojet, DHL and UPS. Highway 11 links the field directly to North Bay and on towards Toronto, roughly five to six hours by truck, with Ontario Northland providing rail freight. Cross-border shipments need clearance by the Canada Border Services Agency, handled for international freight at the YYZ and YHM ports of entry.
