## Description

UPS, FedEx, Empire Airlines, USA Jet and Integrated Airline Services all work the ramp at Shreveport Regional Airport, the freight tenants of a 30-million-dollar cargo terminal opened in 2009. Behind a modest passenger schedule to Dallas and Atlanta, north-west Louisiana's main airport runs a far heavier cargo and maintenance operation than its size suggests: Western Global Airlines bases its Boeing 747 and MD-11 freighters here, and SkyWest operates a major MRO centre. The field sits on Interstate 20 between Dallas and the Mississippi, with rail access via the former Kansas City Southern (now CPKC). For intercontinental air freight, Louisiana's gateway remains New Orleans (MSY).
