Cauquira Airport (IATA: CDD) is located in the city of Cauquira, Honduras.
Airport Overview
Cauquira Airport(CDD)is a small local air facility serving Cauquira in Honduras. Its position on the Caribbean side of the country makes it relevant mainly to remote-community access and limited regional air movements rather than to conventional international cargo consolidation. The supplied airport record identifies the location as Cauquira, Honduras, at 15.3166666°N and 83.5916672°W, within the UTC−06:00 time zone. The same record shows no listed airline or express-cargo operator count, so our service team does not treat Cauquira Airport as a confirmed scheduled air-freight gateway. Shipments should be assessed case by case, with aircraft availability, handling arrangements, customs feasibility, weather, and the final-mile connection confirmed before cargo is accepted.

Key Highlights
- Cauquira Airport should be handled as a destination requiring pre-arranged uplift and ground coordination, not as a standard cargo-terminal gateway.
- The supplied record lists air_num: 0 and exp_num: 0; our team therefore does not assume regular airline cargo or express-network acceptance.
- Remote Caribbean geography can make road feeder options, weather, aircraft payload, and fuel planning more important than the nominal air distance.
- Formal cargo acceptance, customs availability, operating hours, and handling equipment require confirmation for each shipment.
- For urgent, high-value, temperature-sensitive, dangerous, or oversized cargo, an alternative Honduran gateway may provide a more controllable logistics plan.
Cargo Facilities & Services
Publicly confirmed cargo-terminal specifications, warehouse capacity, cold-chain infrastructure, bonded storage, and dangerous-goods facilities are not assumed for this local facility. Our service team will verify the following before issuing a firm routing proposal:
Routes & Logistics Transit Times
- There is no confirmed scheduled cargo route, carrier roster, or flight frequency in the supplied record. Our team will seek a current operating confirmation rather than publish an assumed airline or timetable.
- Potential routing may involve a commercial Honduran gateway, a regional feeder, or a dedicated charter followed by local delivery. The feasible option depends on aircraft performance, payload, weather, customs status, and consignee access.
- Transit time must be quoted only after the complete routing is confirmed. Connection waiting time, cargo release, local handling, and road or boat transfer can materially exceed the flying time.
- For export cargo, the shipper should allow time for origin screening, document review, and confirmation that the destination operator can legally receive the shipment.
Hinterland & Key Cargo
- The primary catchment is Cauquira and nearby remote communities in the Caribbean region of Honduras; the practical delivery radius depends on local road, water, and community access.
- Likely shipment profiles are small, high-priority consignments such as replacement parts, communications equipment, basic industrial supplies, project spares, and essential community supplies, subject to local acceptance.
- Perishables, chilled products, pharmaceuticals, and live animals require a verified temperature or welfare chain; a short flight alone does not establish cold-chain capability.
- Large commercial volumes, routine e-commerce parcels, garments, or consolidated export cargo may be better suited to a larger gateway with documented cargo handling and scheduled uplift.
Operations & Compliance
- Cut-off: No public cargo cut-off should be assumed. Our team will obtain the operator’s acceptance deadline, aircraft call time, screening requirement, and document cut-off for the specific movement.
- Documents: Prepare a commercially accurate invoice, packing list, air waybill instructions, shipper and consignee contact details, customs data, and any permits required for the commodity and routing.
- Dangerous goods: Batteries, aerosols, fuels, chemicals, dry ice, and other regulated articles require advance classification, compliant packing, labels, declarations, and carrier approval. Acceptance is not presumed.
- Special handling: Temperature-controlled, live-animal, valuable, fragile, or oversized cargo should not be tendered until equipment, storage, security, and delivery arrangements are confirmed in writing.
Shipping Tips
- Send our service team the commodity, piece dimensions, gross weight, stackability, battery or dangerous-goods details, declared value, and delivery location before requesting a quotation.
- Use robust export packaging suitable for manual transfer and possible multimodal handling; provide lifting points and clear piece markings for awkward or fragile cargo.
- Book only after the actual operator, customs process, cargo acceptance point, and final-mile handover have been identified. Retain schedule flexibility for weather and local access conditions.
- For critical shipments, request two plans: a Cauquira Airport option subject to local confirmation and an alternative gateway with documented scheduled cargo handling.
Frequently Asked Questions
- Can Cauquira Airport receive international air cargo?
- Not automatically. Our team must confirm the current operator, customs arrangement, screening process, aircraft acceptance, and local delivery procedure before promising an international shipment.
- Is a regular express service available through Cauquira Airport?
- The supplied record lists no express operator count. We do not assume integrator service; urgent parcels may require a larger gateway plus a separately arranged local transfer.
- Can the airport handle dangerous goods or lithium batteries?
- Only after written acceptance by the actual carrier or operator. The shipper must provide correct classification, packing, markings, declarations, and battery specifications where applicable.
- Can refrigerated pharmaceuticals or perishables be routed there?
- They may be considered only after the complete temperature chain is verified, including aircraft loading, any local storage, monitoring, handover, and final delivery. Otherwise, our team will recommend a more controlled gateway.
- What information is needed for a reliable quotation?
- Provide origin, final delivery point, commodity, pieces, dimensions, gross weight, value, ready date, handling requirements, customs status, and whether the shipment includes batteries, dry ice, live material, or other regulated goods.
Data Sources & Provenance
Hard identifiers, coordinates, city, country, time zone, and the supplied operator-count fields are reproduced from the airport record provided for this page. The record does not provide runway, terminal, warehouse, customs, carrier, schedule, capacity, or handling-equipment specifications; those items are therefore presented only as verification requirements and operational constraints.
For code and aviation-reference cross-checking, our team may consult the International Air Transport Association at iata.org. Current acceptance, customs, security, operating status, and special-cargo capability must be confirmed with the responsible Honduran authorities, local operator, and actual carrier before shipment release.
Verification boundary: Airport conditions and local service availability may change. A quotation or routing is not considered confirmed until the relevant operator and handling chain provide current written acceptance.
