## Description

At the southwestern tip of Nova Scotia, where the Atlantic meets the Gulf of Maine, Yarmouth Airport (IATA: YQI) anchors a fishing and ferry town better known for lobster than for air freight. The regional field offers limited scheduled service alongside charter and general-aviation traffic. It operates no cargo terminal, so time-sensitive seafood bound for export is trucked to Halifax Stanfield International (YHZ) for onward air carriage. Highway 101 ties the port reliably to that provincial handling point. For forwarders, Yarmouth is a feeder location with a short road leg to the nearest freighter.
