## Description

A temporary air cargo complex opened in 2019, the old terminal now being converted into a freight facility, and 17 acres earmarked for a new hub — Raja Bhoj's cargo story in Bhopal is one of gradual build-out. As the capital of Madhya Pradesh, the city carries political weight, but the airport (BHO) plays in a smaller league on freight volume. Since 1 October 2024 it has operated around the clock, improving connections and flexibility. Available cargo capacity nonetheless stays limited, so booking shipments well ahead is advisable. The airport handles mainly domestic freight; international consignments route through Delhi (DEL) or Mumbai (BOM).
