The As-Sallum airstrip sits on the Mediterranean coast at the Egyptian-Libyan frontier, right beside the border crossing of the same name; no scheduled or cargo flights are documented and there is no terminal or air-freight customs clearance. Trade at this point moves almost entirely by truck along the coastal highway rather than by air. Air cargo is cleared at Marsa Matruh (MUH, about 215 km east) or Cairo (CAI) and hauled to the border by road.
