## Description

Seven flights a week, one airline, three destinations: Haixi Mangnai Airport (IATA: HTT, ICAO: ZLHX), still widely listed as Huatugou, is the air link for an oil town on the western rim of the Qaidam Basin. China Eastern serves Xining, Delingha and Dunhuang from the field, which opened on 26 June 2015; there is no cargo terminal and no freighter traffic. What little freight travels by air goes as belly load, and at almost 3,000 metres above sea level the thin air cuts allowable payload further. Supplies for the Qinghai oilfield arrive by truck on the highways towards Golmud, Dunhuang and Xinjiang, with transit times of two days and more being routine. Air freight for the region is booked through Xining Caojiapu (XNN), Qinghai's cargo airport, or Dunhuang (DNH) across the provincial border in Gansu. For forwarders, HTT is a crew shuttle for the energy industry rather than a handling point.
