Leaving Beijing
Beijing is served by 2 airports with scheduled flights within 100 km. The closest large one is Beijing Capital International Airport (PEK), 25 km (16 mi) from the centre, whose 12,467-ft runway is long enough for long-haul wide-body aircraft. The alternatives are Beijing Daxing International Airport (PKX, 45 km).
Arriving in East Chattanooga

One end has no runway over 10,000 ft, so at 11,388 km (7,076 mi) this pair is unlikely to be flown nonstop by a wide-body; expect a connection.
