You can use either port. But the MagSafe is the preferred way as it leaves the USB ports available for other things and give. How few you have on this series without using a hub or limited throughput just using one port it’s wise to use the MagSafe port for charging.

Thank you. I've looked on internet but this aspet was not clear at all. Can I use a standarc usb-c cable or a spcial one is needed?
@ziobru - Not all USB-C cables are power charging cables! So you can’t use the word standard as that’s like saying everyone is the same as we are all standard Humans ;-} and of course my view will be different than yours.
Lets backup here way is using the USB port important here? Is the MagSafe port damaged? Or you just can’t get the needed replacement cable? Where are you located maybe we can aim you to somewhere to get the needed cable if that’s the issue.
@danj ok, thank you. At the moment I don't have any problem with magsafe, I asked for the cabe to understand if there is a specific one for MBA :)
@ziobru - if you have a Apple Store near you or a reseller ask them for the required charging cable you will want to mark it so you don’t confuse it with your others. This cable can be used with a Hub which offers additional USB ports which either need power of the devices being used on it or allow you to use one of the ports on it for your charger with a second charger rated cable. Don’t go too cheap as these are often not fully wired or use thinner wires which effects the ability of the system to charge.
