## Description

Busy with domestic passengers yet marginal for freight, Dezful Airport (IATA: DEF, ICAO: OIAD) shares its infrastructure with Vahdati air base in northern Khuzestan, the civil side being run by the Iran Airports Company. Iran Air, Karun Airlines, Mahan Air and Qeshm Air link the city with Tehran-Mehrabad and Mashhad; there are no international services. Cargo moves only as limited belly load on those passenger flights — there is no dedicated freight terminal, and customs facilities for air cargo imports are not confirmed. For genuine air-freight needs the region relies on Ahvaz (AWZ) some 150 km to the south, and on Tehran-Imam Khomeini (IKA) as the national gateway for intercontinental shipments. Landside feeders run along the highway towards Andimeshk and the rail corridor connecting Khuzestan with Tehran and the port of Bandar Imam Khomeini, which for much of this agricultural and sugar-producing region is the more realistic road-rail-sea combination anyway. The honest logistics verdict: Dezful is a passenger reference point, not a freight location.
