## Description

Miri (IATA: MYY, ICAO: WBGR) grew up with Malaysia's oil industry — the country's first well was drilled here — and its air freight still leans heavily on that sector, carrying spare parts and drilling instrumentation for the offshore fields along the coast. Handling roughly 5,300 tonnes of cargo and more than two million passengers before the pandemic, it ranks as Malaysia's sixth-busiest airport and the second-busiest in Sarawak. As the principal base for MASwings, Miri gathers regional traffic from dozens of small STOL strips across the interior, picking up their belly freight along the way. AirAsia flies the trunk routes to Kuala Lumpur and Kota Kinabalu, on which part of the cargo continues in the holds of the jets. Freight is processed at a cargo area beside the terminal, with customs handled by Malaysia's Kastam authority. Trucks reach the city's industrial zones and the Port of Miri via the Pan Borneo Highway corridor. For temperature-critical or especially urgent consignments, Kuala Lumpur (KUL) remains the nearest intercontinental freight point. In short, Miri is a genuine mid-sized cargo station with a distinct oil-and-gas signature.
