## Description

Northern Bangladesh's busiest runway is still a passenger-only affair: Saidpur Airport (SPD/VGSD) in Nilphamari district leads the region by traffic but handles no scheduled cargo. US-Bangla, Biman, Novoair and Air Astra all serve the domestic route to Dhaka. Government plans envisage upgrading the field into a regional hub with international links, yet for now freight stays on the road. Exports from the nearby Uttara EPZ and area garment plants are trucked to Hazrat Shahjalal International (DAC). For forwarders, SPD is a passenger airport with ambitions rather than a freight option.
