    There are some other cases (or are they cases, I dunno) used only in special contexts.

    в аэропортУ - at the airport
    дай мне хлеба - give me bread

    But yeah, they're negligible compared to the other main cases, you can worry about them later.

    хлеба in your example is the genitive partative and is just another usage of the genitive case, not a different case.

    Yes, "я хочу есть хлеб" is correct.

    хлеб is in the accusative case here since it is the direct object of the verb есть. хлеб in the accusative case is identical in form to the nominative case.

    A noun can not be "not in any case". Every noun is in a case.

    If you put хлеб in the genitive case (хлеба) it can mean "some bread" in certain contexts.
