## Description

Pardubice (IATA: PED, ICAO: LKPD) handled roughly 3,000 tonnes of cargo in 2024 – modest next to Prague, yet eastern Bohemia's main air-freight option. The industrial city about 100 km east of Prague is a Foxconn site, and the joint civil-military airfield has a documented record of ad-hoc freight charters, up to widebody freighters and Antonov heavy-lift aircraft for oversized loads. Alongside charter and holiday flights it hosts the Czech Armed Forces' pilot training centre. Operations were suspended from 17 February to 31 May 2025 for runway repairs and resumed in June 2025. Larger air-freight volumes consolidate at Prague (IATA: PRG, approx. 100 km).
