Our facilities are designed to ensure the fastest, most convenient transit through the airport. We provide state-of-art facilities with brand new equipment, including an automated air cargo pallet handling system with two elevating transfer vehicles providing storage for 500 aircraft pallets.

The cargo terminal represents an investment of about US$38 million and extends over 55,000 sq.m. With a fully secured, access controlled environment protected by CCTV coverage, the terminal handles around 400,000 tones of cargo a year.

Specialist handling of high-value goods, outsized cargoes, dangerous goods, radioactive goods and live animals is also provided. An x-ray system can scan full pallets from shippers without breaking them into parts. There is also a temperature controlled perishables center with 6 different temperature cold rooms.

An Automated Storage and Retrieval System (ASRS) provides storage for non-unitized cargo and is liked to a computerized cargo management system that can retrieve 50 containers per hour and allows for barcode and RFIDS operations.
