News from this website At 9:55 on March 20, a customs-supervised vehicle, loaded with goods and locked by the Ezhou Customs (affiliate of Wuhan Customs), drove out of the SF International Cargo Terminal at Ezhou Huahu Airport. After passing the automatic barrier gate at the checkpoint, it headed towards Wuhan Tianhe Airport to take off the same day on an international flight to Belgium.
The cargo was transferred to Tianhe Airport for export after a series of procedures at Ezhou Huahu Airport, including cargo collection, loading, customs declaration and release. This is also the first batch of exported goods after the official opening of SF International Cargo Terminal at Ezhou Huahu Airport. This successful export not only marks the capability of SF International Cargo Terminal in handling the import or export cargos, which lays the foundation for the launch of the international cargo routes as the next step, but also clears the logistics channel between Ezhou Huahu Airport and Wuhan Tianhe Airport, which materializes the dual-hub mode of "shared routes, shared flight moments and shared regulatory resources" between the two airports.
Wuhan Customs has been actively following the strategy of Hubei Province to build a world-class air cargo hub. With the goal of "being the most intelligent, intensive, convenient and efficient", customs resources were concentrated to organize special teams to accelerate the construction of port facilities at Ezhou Huahu Airport, with an innovative and optimized supervision mode, to build a smart port. To speed up the opening of the cargo route, Wuhan Customs gathered all parties to work onsite for several times since the opening of the port to concentrate the efforts in solving practical problems and clearing the customs clearance process. With this help, the port successfully reached the customs clearance conditions three months earlier than expected.
It is reported that Ezhou Huahu Airport will launch the first international airline from Ezhou to Liège, Belgium in early April, upgrading it from "Ezhou Huahu Airport" to "Ezhou Huahu International Airport".
