Flights to Bengkulu
Which airport to land at, how far each is from the centre, and where the routes go. Live fares are booked here.
Bengkulu is served by one airport with scheduled flights. The closest large one is Fatmawati Soekarno Airport (BKS), 11 km (7 mi) from the centre, with a longest runway of 7,345 ft, which limits it to short and medium-haul aircraft.
| Airport | Code | From centre | Longest runway | Elevation |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Fatmawati Soekarno Airport (regional) | BKS | 11 km (7 mi) | 7,345 ft | 50 ft |
Runway length is a practical tell: at 7,345 ft, BKS handles short and medium-haul aircraft, so a long-haul trip will connect somewhere else first. The airport sits at 50 ft; that is low enough that altitude never restricts departures.
