## Description

Humberside is a passenger and offshore-helicopter airport, not a freight gateway — a distinction that sharpened when Eastern Airways, long headquartered here, collapsed in October 2025 and took the Aberdeen service with it. Today KLM's daily link to Amsterdam Schiphol (up to three times a day) is the sole scheduled route at Humberside Airport (IATA: HUY, ICAO: EGNJ) near Kirmington, North Lincolnshire, and the main hub connection for belly cargo from the region. The field still matters for the North Sea: CHC flies offshore missions to oil, gas and wind-farm platforms (including for Ørsted), after Bristow and Babcock moved to Norwich in 2016. TUI adds seasonal holiday flights such as Palma. Dedicated air freight is negligible — throughput was around 123 tonnes in 2016 and has since been scaled back. For larger shipments the region routes through East Midlands Airport (IATA: EMA), the UK's leading dedicated cargo airport with DHL, UPS and FedEx hubs, about 110 km to the south-west.
