## Description

Puerto Rico's pharmaceutical and medical device plants generate a steady stream of temperature-controlled air freight, but almost none of it passes through Fernando Luis Ribas Dominicci Airport (IATA: SIG, ICAO: TJIG). Known as Isla Grande and set on San Juan Bay less than ten kilometres from Luis Muñoz Marín International, the field serves general aviation, air taxi work, a handful of regional scheduled services and military helicopter operations; no cargo terminal, freighter operation or resident air cargo handling agent is confirmed. US Customs and Border Protection does publish a general aviation fact sheet for TJIG, so international private arrivals can be cleared with advance notice. The island's freight instead concentrates at Luis Muñoz Marín (SJU), where FedEx Express runs a roughly 70,000 square foot ramp facility with sorting capacity of up to 2,400 packages an hour, fourteen truck docks and refrigerated and temperature-controlled areas, and where IATA has recognised certified pharmaceutical handling. Shipments between Puerto Rico and the US mainland move as domestic traffic for customs purposes, while imports from third countries clear normally with CBP. Aguadilla (BQN) and Ponce (PSE) are the alternative fields on the island.
