Clacton Airfield is a small grass field on the Essex coast at Clacton-on-Sea, used for general aviation, pleasure flights and flight training; it has no IATA code, no scheduled service, no freight handling and no customs post. It therefore carries no freight relevance. Air freight for the region moves through London Stansted (STN), the leading cargo airport of eastern England, as well as London Southend (SEN) and London Heathrow (LHR); for sea freight, the ports of Harwich and Felixstowe lie close by, and since the UK left the EU a customs declaration is required for consignments from the EU.
