Besakoa (BSV) in north-western Madagascar is a simple natural-surface strip for light aircraft, of the kind that keeps remote settlements on the island accessible. It has no cargo handling, no warehouse space, no ground handling agent and no customs post, so it plays no role in air freight. Regional shipments move through Mahajanga Amborovy (MJN) and above all through Antananarivo Ivato (TNR), Madagascar's principal cargo airport, while bulk and heavy goods leave by sea via the port of Mahajanga.
