Bandar Seri Begawan is served by 4 airports with scheduled flights within 100 km. The closest large one is Brunei International Airport (BWN), 6 km (4 mi) from the centre, whose 12,000-ft runway is long enough for long-haul wide-body aircraft. The alternatives are Limbang Airport (LMN, 12 km), Labuan Airport (LBU, 57 km), Mulu Airport (MZV, 95 km).
| Airport | Code | From centre | Longest runway | Elevation |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Brunei International Airport | BWN | 6 km (4 mi) | 12,000 ft | 73 ft |
| Limbang Airport (regional) | LMN | 12 km (7 mi) | 4,922 ft | 14 ft |

Runway length is a practical tell: at 12,000 ft, BWN can take the largest long-haul aircraft, so direct intercontinental flights are physically possible here. The airport sits at 73 ft; that is low enough that altitude never restricts departures.
