## Description

Wizz Air is effectively the lone scheduled operator at Shirak International (LWN), linking Gyumri with Larnaca, which underlines the airport's low-cost, passenger-led profile. Armenia's second airport doubles as an Armenian Air Force base and reopened a tripled-capacity arrivals hall in 2021, alongside a resurfaced 3,220 m runway able to take A321 and 737-800 jets. Dedicated air-freight handling, however, is absent, so regional cargo from Shirak Province mostly trucks the roughly 120 km to Yerevan and Zvartnots (EVN). Master plans flag possible cargo facilities should traffic keep rising.
