## Description

Hazelnuts define this stretch of the Black Sea coast — the Ordu-Giresun belt supplies a large share of the world crop. The airport serving it (IATA: OGU, ICAO: LTCB) was Turkey's first built entirely on an artificial island, opened in 2015, and handled about 1.2 million passengers in 2024, almost all domestic. Turkish Airlines, AJet, Pegasus and SunExpress link it mainly to Istanbul and Ankara. There are no freighters; air cargo moves as belly freight or via Ankara Esenboğa (IATA: ESB, approx. 550 km), while the nut harvest itself leaves overwhelmingly by road and sea.
