Herat Airport Reviews Herat International Airport (IATA: HEA, ICAO: OAHR) is located 6.5 miles (10.5 km) southeast of the city of Herat in western Afghanistan, east of the Herat-Farah road, close to Guzara in the Guzara District of the Herat Province. The airport was originally built by engineers from the United States in the late 1950s. During the 1980s Soviet war, it was heavily used by the Soviets to launch bombardment missions on Mujahideen rebel forces. The airport was a base for military fighters and transport aircraft (likely Antonov An-26, Antonov An-32 and Mikoyan-Gurevich MiG-21). The Herat Airport is believed to be the third largest after Afghanistan’s Kabul International Airport, and Kandahar International Airport. It serves as the capital of Herat province and is situated in the valley of the Hari River, which flows from the mountains of central Afghanistan to the Karakum Desert in Turkmenistan. Herat Airport airlines and destinations are Ariana Afghan Airlines – Jeddah, Kabul, Kandahar, Kam Air – Kabul, Mazar-i-Sharif, Safi Airways – Kabul and East Horizon Airlines – Kabul, Zaranj, Chaghcharan, Maymana.
