## Description

Set between Ismailia and the Suez Canal in north-east Egypt, Abu Suwayr is a military airfield of the Egyptian Air Force rather than a commercial airport. It carries no IATA code and is closed to scheduled passenger or freight traffic. There is no public cargo handling at the base, so air shipments for the canal zone and eastern Nile Delta are consolidated through Cairo International (CAI), roughly 120 km west and the nearest civil freight hub with customs and bonded storage. For supply-chain planners the seaports along the Suez Canal — Port Said and Ain Sokhna in particular — matter far more, and lend themselves to multimodal sea-air routings. Abu Suwayr is therefore a reference point on the map, not a logistics node.
