## Description

The Republic of Korea Air Force is the sole operator at Jungwon Air Base (JWO) near Chungju – civil aviation plays no role here. The base has no passenger terminal, no customs office and no freight infrastructure. Shippers in North Chungcheong province route air cargo through Cheongju (CJJ), about an hour away, or truck it directly to Incheon (ICN) via the Jungbu Expressway. JWO itself should not appear in any commercial routing.
