## Description

Operated by concession-holder CCR since March 2022, Lauro Carneiro de Loyola Airport (JOI) serves Joinville, the largest and most industrial city in Santa Catarina. Flights are exclusively domestic, yet the presence of heavy manufacturers such as Tupy and Whirlpool/Embraco gives the airport a genuine if modest cargo role. It handled about 538 tonnes of freight in 2020, down 70 percent year-on-year amid the pandemic. Most industrial exports, however, move through the nearby Babitonga Bay seaports of São Francisco do Sul and Itapoá, roughly 40 kilometres away. Time-critical airfreight is generally consolidated at the Viracopos (VCP) and Guarulhos (GRU) hubs. For forwarders, JOI is a feeder that complements, rather than replaces, the region's sea and road freight.
