## Description

Long a centre of Russia's linen trade and a Golden Ring tourist town, Kostroma sends none of its goods through Sokerkino Airport (IATA: KMW, ICAO: UUBA), about 6 km northeast of the city. The field is a regional turboprop airport with a thin, shifting schedule, at times serving Saint Petersburg. It has no cargo terminal and no commercial freight handling. Regional goods move by road and rail — Kostroma sits on the M8 corridor via Yaroslavl — while airfreight routes through the Moscow hubs roughly 300 km southwest. For forwarders, KMW is a feeder with no cargo role.
