## Description

Southwestern Shanxi around Yuncheng lives off salt, aluminium and magnesium processing, and its airport carries the region's signature in its name: Yuncheng Salt Lake International Airport (IATA: YCU), formerly known as Guangong Airport after local-born general Guan Yu. The field serves domestic passenger routes to China's major cities. Cargo facilities are designed for about 8,000 tonnes a year, yet actual traffic is limited to small belly-hold volumes – there are no freighter services or integrator stations. Larger consignments are trucked to Xi'an Xianyang (XIY) or Zhengzhou Xinzheng (CGO), both within comfortable road-feeder reach.
