The code ANU marks Antigua and Barbuda's principal aviation gateway, V.C. Bird International near St. John's. The airport runs a dedicated air-cargo facility alongside its passenger terminal, handling hundreds of freight movements a year. Scheduled cargo links to Miami and San Juan keep imported consumer goods, foodstuffs and spare parts flowing to the tourism-driven economy. Amerijet is the mainstay freight carrier, with IAG Cargo adding belly-hold capacity across its network. Ground handling is provided by Airport Services Antigua Ltd., and on-site customs brokerage speeds import and export clearance. With no rail on the island, trucking from the apron covers the short run to St. John's and its seaport, supporting combined sea-air shipments.
