Flights to Assiut
Which airport to land at, how far each is from the centre, and where the routes go. Live fares are booked here.
Assiut is served by one airport with scheduled flights. The closest large one is Asyut International Airport (ATZ), 23 km (14 mi) from the centre, with a longest runway of 9,905 ft, which limits it to short and medium-haul aircraft.
| Airport | Code | From centre | Longest runway | Elevation |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Asyut International Airport | ATZ | 23 km (14 mi) | 9,905 ft | 748 ft |
Runway length is a practical tell: at 9,905 ft, ATZ handles short and medium-haul aircraft, so a long-haul trip will connect somewhere else first. The airport sits at 748 ft; that is low enough that altitude never restricts departures.
