✨ AI-Enhanced Insights
Heihe Aihui Airport (HEK/ZYHE) is a regional airport serving Heihe, a border city in Heilongjiang Province, China, across the Amur River from Blagoveshchensk, Russia. Named after the historic Aihui District, it handles domestic flights and supports tourism and cross-border trade in China’s far northeast. Its compact terminal and cold-climate operations reflect the remote, seasonal character of the region.
💡 Local Tip
Frequent visitors know to eat before arriving: the terminal has very limited dining, and winter flights can be delayed, so bring snacks and a power bank.
🚖 Getting There
Taxis and airport shuttles are the main options; confirm the fare or use a metered taxi, as ride-hailing can be scarce. Allow extra time in winter because snow and ice can slow road travel. If continuing to Russia, note that the airport is not the usual border crossing—use Heihe’s passenger port for Blagoveshchensk.
