## Description

Oil palm, cocoa and the foot traffic of Kokoda trekkers shape the freight profile of Girua Airport (IATA: PNP) near Popondetta. Air Niugini and PNG Air operate the scheduled link to the national capital, carrying passengers and modest belly freight only. The airport has no dedicated cargo terminal or freighter service, so bulk shipments from Oro Province move by road to Oro Bay's wharves or are consolidated through Port Moresby's Jacksons International (POM). Sitting at 311 feet, Girua functions as a regional feeder rather than a freight centre.
