In 2023 it processed 72,639 tonnes of freight, dominated by exports of agricultural produce, processed foods and manufactured goods from the surrounding state. Severe flooding in May 2024 shut the airport for months and cut volumes to roughly 11,500 tonnes before the cargo terminal returned to full service later that year.","url":"https://www.freight-academy.com/en/information/airports/salgado-filho-international-airport-poa","markdownMirror":"https://www.freight-academy.com/api/md/airports/en/salgado-filho-international-airport-poa","provider":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Frachtportal","url":"https://www.freight-academy.com"},"quickSummary":"Salgado Filho International Airport · (IATA: POA) · Porto Alegre, BR · 3 m · Cargo Hub"}
