Wuhai Airport

Wuhai Airport (IATA: WUA, ICAO: ZBUH) is a domestic civil aviation facility serving Wuhai, a prefecture-level city in the Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region of China. Situated along the Yellow River and surrounded by the Gobi Desert, the airport provides essential air connectivity for a city primarily known for its coal mining and industry. The airport operates a limited number of domestic routes, connecting Wuhai to major Chinese cities including Beijing, Shanghai, and Chengdu. It serves a modest annual passenger volume reflective of Wuhai's relatively small urban population of around one million residents. As a smaller regional airport, Wuhai Airport plays an important role in facilitating business travel related to the local energy sector and supporting regional economic development in western Inner Mongolia.
