A scheduled freight network linking Miami, Frankfurt and Lisbon sets Hercílio Luz International Airport apart from most airports of its size in southern Brazil. LATAM Cargo and Avianca Cargo fly four weekly cargo services to Miami, LATAM Cargo adds two to Frankfurt, and TAP Air Portugal operates three to Lisbon. The terminal forms part of the new airport complex opened in 2019 and operated by Zurich Airport Brasil. Florianópolis is one of Brazil's leading technology centres, which lifts the value profile of its air cargo. Santa Catarina's wider industrial and agricultural output also feeds the airport, with perishable and time-critical goods taking the air route while bulk volumes ship through the nearby ports of Itajaí and Navegantes. Customs clearance is available on site. For forwarders, Florianópolis is a growing regional node with direct reach into North America and Europe.
