## Description

Kaoliang liquor, the island's most famous export, leaves Kinmen by ship – not by air. Kinmen Airport (IATA: KNH, ICAO: RCBS) in Jinhu Township is a purely domestic passenger field, served by Uni Air and Mandarin Airlines with ATR and Embraer aircraft to Taipei Songshan, Kaohsiung, Taichung, Tainan and Chiayi, adding up to roughly 160 departures a week. There is no cargo terminal and no freighter service; at most, limited belly space travels on the turboprops. Forwarders route air freight for Kinmen through Taiwan Taoyuan (TPE) and complete delivery by sea freight or ferry, while the "Mini Three Links" ferry to Xiamen connects the island directly to the Chinese mainland for small-scale cross-strait trade. For time-critical shipments, TPE remains the only realistic air cargo gateway.
