Alicante is served by 2 airports with scheduled flights within 100 km. The closest large one is Alicante-Elche Miguel Hernández Airport (ALC), 10 km (6 mi) from the centre, with a longest runway of 9,842 ft, which limits it to short and medium-haul aircraft. The alternatives are Region of Murcia International Airport (RMU, 83 km).
| Airport | Code | From centre | Longest runway | Elevation |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Alicante-Elche Miguel Hernández Airport | ALC | 10 km (6 mi) | 9,842 ft | 142 ft |
| Region of Murcia International Airport | RMU | 83 km (52 mi) | 9,842 ft | 644 ft |
Runway length is a practical tell: at 9,842 ft, ALC handles short and medium-haul aircraft, so a long-haul trip will connect somewhere else first. The airport sits at 142 ft; that is low enough that altitude never restricts departures.
