About This Airport

At 54 degrees south, Ushuaia – Malvinas Argentinas International Airport (USH) is the gateway to the world's southernmost city and the main embarkation point for Antarctic cruises. Traffic is heavily seasonal and passenger-led, so air freight travels almost entirely as belly cargo on Aerolíneas Argentinas services rather than on dedicated freighters. The airport has customs facilities for its international links but no standalone cargo terminal. Tierra del Fuego's signature export, king crab (centolla), leaves the region mostly by sea, not by air. Shippers needing real volume or express capacity route through the national hub at Buenos Aires-Ezeiza (EZE).
