Worth knowing about Herāt
- Herat's field sits about 10 km southeast of the city in Guzara District, next to the Kandahar to Herat highway, so the drive in is on a trunk road rather than through town.
- The schedule is thin. Ariana Afghan Airlines and Kam Air both fly Herat to Kabul, and the only international service listed is a seasonal Jeddah flight.
- This is Afghanistan's fourth largest commercial airport, behind Kabul, Kandahar and Mazar-i-Sharif, and its international terminal was built with Italian funding and named after Captain Massimo Ranzani.
