## Description

Named after Brigadier Antonio Parodi, Esquel Airport (IATA: EQS) sits against the Patagonian Andes as a gateway to Los Alerces National Park and the La Hoya ski area, and serves mainly tourism. The town is also known for La Trochita, the historic narrow-gauge railway. Air service is limited to a few domestic links, and the field has no dedicated cargo facility. Shipments move as belly freight or by truck along National Route 40, with the region's commercial cargo consolidated through Buenos Aires-Ezeiza (EZE), the national gateway. For forwarders, EQS is a seasonal feeder with no meaningful freight role.
