Shihezi Huayuan

Shihezi Huayuan Airport (IATA: SHF) is a small regional airport serving Shihezi in northern Xinjiang, opened in the early 2010s and centered around a single modest terminal that handles predominantly domestic flights. As the main air gateway for the Shihezi area it offers practical connections to Urumqi and other Chinese cities, with taxi services, scheduled airport shuttles and road links making the city center and surrounding towns easy to reach. SHF is known for short check-in times and generally budget-friendly fares on Chinese carriers; it’s served by national and regional airlines such as Air China, China Southern, China Eastern and Urumqi Air rather than functioning as a major hub.
