Busia Airport sits in western Kenya right on the Ugandan border, where goods traditionally cross by road along the Northern Corridor. The field itself is a small strip without scheduled service, cargo terminal or customs clearance, so it plays no role in air freight. Perishable exports from the region move through Eldoret (EDL), with its flower and fresh produce operation, and through Nairobi Jomo Kenyatta (NBO), East Africa's largest cargo gateway.
