On Queensland's Cape York Peninsula in far northern Australia, close to Palmer, Drumduff (DFP) is a remote outback airstrip rather than a commercial airport. There are no scheduled services, no freight terminal and no customs facilities, so cargo relevance is negligible and limited to small aircraft on supply or medical flights. Air cargo for the region is handled through Cairns (CNS), while Weipa (WEI) serves the far north of the peninsula.
