## Description

Mocímboa da Praia makes more sense as a node in the Mozambique LNG story than as a freight airport. Set on the Cabo Delgado coast near the Palma and Afungi gas developments, its airport (MZB/FQMP) offers domestic links when the security situation allows — operations were interrupted during the armed conflict of the early 2020s. It has no air-cargo infrastructure. Regional project and supply logistics run mainly through Pemba's port and airport and the facilities at Palma.
