## Description

Serving Israel's northern industrial and port region, Uri Michaeli Haifa International Airport returned to real traffic in 2024 when start-up carrier airHaifa launched flights to Eilat, Cyprus, Greece and Bulgaria. Operations are almost entirely passenger-focused over the eastern Mediterranean; the airport has no formal cargo facility and handles only limited postal and courier traffic. Israel's air freight is concentrated at Ben Gurion Airport (TLV), while heavy goods for the Haifa area move through the adjacent Port of Haifa, a leading eastern-Mediterranean container gateway. That proximity ties the site far more to sea freight than to air cargo. Forwarders should treat HFA as a passenger field backed by Haifa's maritime logistics rather than a freight option.
