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).

New Haven is served by 6 airports with scheduled flights within 100 km. The closest large one is Bradley International Airport (BDL), 73 km (45 mi) from the centre, with a longest runway of 9,510 ft, which limits it to short and medium-haul aircraft. The alternatives are LaGuardia Airport (LGA, 99 km), Tweed New Haven Airport (HVN, 6 km), Long Island MacArthur Airport (ISP, 59 km), Westchester County Airport (HPN, 71 km), Westerly State Airport (WST, 94 km).
