## Description

Anyone looking for freight capacity near Caserta will not find it at Grazzanise Air Base (ICAO LIRM): the Carlo Romagnoli field is purely military, carries no civil IATA code and handles no commercial cargo. It is home to the Aeronautica Militare's 9° Stormo «Francesco Baracca» and its 21° Gruppo, flying HH-101A and HH-212 helicopters for combat search and rescue and special forces support in Italy and abroad; NATO has handed over new infrastructure to the wing. The main runway 06R/24L measures 2,991 by 30 metres, long enough for transport aircraft, but access stays military. There is no handling agent, no air cargo terminal and no customs office open to shippers. Air freight for Caserta and northern Campania moves through Naples Capodichino (NAP), about 35 kilometres south-east, which offers belly capacity and customs clearance. Rome Fiumicino (FCO), a good two hours' drive north, carries the freighter capacity for intercontinental volumes, while bulk goes through the port of Naples.
