## Description

A key staging town on the overland corridor to the Muse–Ruili border crossing with China, Lashio in northern Shan State moves most of its trade by road. Lashio Airport (IATA: LSH) has no cargo handling equipment and operates domestic passenger flights to Mandalay and Yangon only. Air freight for the region is routed through Mandalay (MDL). For forwarders, the airport is a passenger field, while the real freight artery is the highway to the Chinese frontier.
