## Description

Set in the Missões region of north-western Rio Grande do Sul, Santo Ângelo Airport (GEL, ICAO SBNM) serves a farming belt built on soybeans, wheat and cattle. Traffic is overwhelmingly domestic passenger service, feeding the state capital Porto Alegre for onward connections. The airport has no dedicated cargo operation; regional exports move by road to Salgado Filho Airport (POA) some 460 km south, or straight to the coastal seaports. For freight forwarders, GEL is a passenger feeder and express-parcel point rather than an air-cargo gateway. The UNESCO World Heritage Jesuit mission ruins of São Miguel das Missões lie nearby.
