Arkon has a Class C Starport, an average quality installation which features amenities including unrefined fuel for starships, some brokerage services for passengers and cargo, and a variety of ship provisions.

Ports of this classification generally have only a downport, unless this is a trade port or system with an hostile environment mainworld.
