Earlier records cast Tela (TEA) as a freight hub with rail links; in reality it is a small regional field on the Caribbean coast of Honduras' Atlántida department. It sits between the busier airports of La Ceiba and San Pedro Sula, serving a town better known for the Bay of Tela and the Garífuna coast than for logistics. There is no dedicated cargo handling and no rail connection. Air freight for the area is realistically routed through San Pedro Sula, around two hours west by road. For forwarders, TEA is a local reference point rather than a transfer location.
