## Description

Home to roughly 65,000 residents, Medicine Hat in southeastern Alberta is served by Medicine Hat Regional Airport (IATA: YXH) with regional links to Calgary. Cargo amounts to belly freight on passenger flights only. Genuine air cargo is consolidated at Calgary (YYC), Alberta's freight gateway, about 290 kilometres west along the Trans-Canada Highway. Palletised and express shipments therefore travel mostly by road. Known as 'The Gas City' for its natural-gas fields, Medicine Hat also leans on agriculture and the nearby CFB Suffield military range.
