## Description

Food, fuel in drums, building materials and medical supplies — these are the cargoes that keep Moosonee (YMO) running, because no road reaches this community on the Moose River, about 19 km south of James Bay. Air Creebec, North Star Air and Thunder Airlines link the airport to Timmins and southern Ontario. Freight here is genuine and essential: Air Creebec operates dedicated freighters including the Dash 8-100 Cargo (up to roughly 4 tonnes) and the ATR 72-500F (up to roughly 7 tonnes). Goods are also transhipped onto aircraft and barges at Moosonee for delivery to the more northerly James Bay coastal communities. Its cargo status is therefore a verified yes. For forwarders, YMO is the transfer point into a region with no continuous road network, with Timmins as the nearest larger southern connection.
