## Description

Listing Al Minhad Air Base (NHD) in a freight routing guide mainly serves to rule it out: the field 24 kilometres south of Dubai is a military installation of the UAE Air Force and has hosted Australian and other coalition forces, with no civilian cargo handling whatsoever. There is no commercial freight terminal, no customs clearance for trade shipments and no scheduled traffic. Air cargo for the Dubai area belongs at Al Maktoum International (DWC), roughly 20 kilometres away, or at Dubai International (DXB) with its SkyCargo infrastructure.
