Airports at each end
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 Waterbury
Waterbury is served by 5 airports with scheduled flights within 100 km. The closest large one is Bradley International Airport (BDL), 52 km (32 mi) from the centre, with a longest runway of 9,510 ft, which limits it to short and medium-haul aircraft. The alternatives are Tweed New Haven Airport (HVN, 36 km), Westchester County Airport (HPN, 77 km), Long Island MacArthur Airport (ISP, 85 km), New York Stewart International Airport (SWF, 88 km).
| Airport | Code | From centre | Longest runway | Elevation |

| Bradley International Airport | BDL | 52 km (32 mi) | 9,510 ft | 173 ft |
| Tweed New Haven Airport (regional) | HVN | 36 km (22 mi) | 5,600 ft | 12 ft |

One end has no runway over 10,000 ft, so at 10,906 km (6,777 mi) this pair is unlikely to be flown nonstop by a wide-body; expect a connection.
