## Description

Freight is not part of Penza's story: Belinsky Airport (IATA: PEZ, ICAO: UWPP) is a domestic passenger field about 10 km south of the western-Russian city, with no cargo terminal or dedicated handler. Regional carriers link Penza to Moscow, St Petersburg and seasonal leisure routes, and any airfreight travels only as belly capacity on those passenger flights. Shippers moving goods by air from the Penza region rely on Moscow's main cargo gateways, Sheremetyevo (SVO) and Domodedovo (DME), roughly 630 km to the north-west. The region's general freight moves overland by road and rail. For forwarders, PEZ is a feeder reference point rather than an air-cargo station.
