About This Airport

UPS, Copa Airlines Cargo and Avianca/TACA Cargo are among the carriers moving freight through Augusto C. Sandino International Airport (MGA), Nicaragua's principal airport for both passengers and cargo in Managua. Its cargo terminal includes several cold-storage units for temperature-sensitive consignments, one reserved solely for medical goods. Typical exports are beef, poultry, seafood, cut flowers and pharmaceuticals, much of it perishable and bound for North and Central American markets. Customs clearance is handled by Nicaragua's customs authority (DGA), while the airport's location on the edge of Managua keeps road links to distribution centres short. For forwarders, MGA is the country's main air-cargo point, complementing belly capacity on scheduled passenger services.
