## Description

By day Jönköping Airport (IATA: JKG, ICAO: ESGJ) — still widely called Axamo, about 8 km west of the city in Småland — handles charter and private flights; by night it turns to freight. Scheduled passenger services ended in 2020 (2023 traffic was roughly 21,850, almost all charter), so cargo defines the field. Nightly freighters link JKG to Belgium, Denmark, Finland and Germany, anchoring it in the northern European overnight-express network, with about 3,070 tonnes of air cargo handled in 2023. The setting helps: greater Jönköping and the Torsvik logistics zone form one of Sweden's densest distribution clusters. For intercontinental freight the nearest major gateway is Gothenburg Landvetter (GOT, ~122 km).
