## Description

Tinson Pen is best understood as a city airfield, not a freight gateway. Located in western Kingston, it handles domestic flights, business aviation and general traffic rather than scheduled cargo. The airport lacks dedicated air-freight facilities, so time-critical shipments move through Norman Manley International (KIN), about ten kilometres away. For forwarders, KTP's relevance is its proximity to downtown Kingston and to the island's main container port, one of the busiest transhipment harbours in the Caribbean.
