## Description

Unlike its cargo-heavy neighbour, Niagara District Airport (YCM / CYSN) at Niagara-on-the-Lake lives off flight training, private and business aviation, and sightseeing flights over wine country. There are no scheduled freighters, integrators or cargo terminal here, so its cargo status is an honest no. The region's actual freight gateway sits close by: John C. Munro Hamilton International (YHM), Canada's largest overnight express cargo airport and home base of Cargojet and DHL, about 30 km west. From there, forwarders distribute shipments across the dense road network of the Golden Horseshoe. A 2025–2045 master plan envisions terminal, runway and commercial expansion at YCM, yet it stays a general-aviation field at the edge of a strong cargo market, not a freight airport itself.
