## Description

Wizz Air anchors the modest schedule at Kukës International Airport Zayed (IATA: KFZ, ICAO: LAKU), which opened in 2021 in Albania's mountainous north-east near the Kosovo border and is named after its Abu Dhabi backer. Traffic is light, mixing low-cost and diaspora services. There is no cargo terminal or customs clearance here – the field handles passengers only. Freight for the region routes through nearby Pristina (PRN, about 80 km) in Kosovo, while Albania's own air-cargo gateway is Tirana (TIA).
