It handles no civil air cargo, so forwarders route shipments through Kuwait International Airport (KWI) instead. Any goods movement here is military resupply rather than scheduled freight. For southern Kuwait, KWI remains the customs entry point, with road haulage covering the final leg.","url":"https://www.freight-academy.com/en/information/airports/ahmed-al-jaber-air-base-airport-xij","markdownMirror":"https://www.freight-academy.com/api/md/airports/en/ahmed-al-jaber-air-base-airport-xij","provider":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Frachtportal","url":"https://www.freight-academy.com"},"quickSummary":"Ahmed Al Jaber Air Base · (IATA: XIJ) · Ahmed Al Jaber AB, KW · 125 m"}
