Flights to Bordeaux
Which airport to land at, how far each is from the centre, and where the routes go. Live fares are booked here.
Bordeaux is served by 2 airports with scheduled flights within 100 km. The closest large one is Bordeaux–Mérignac Airport (BOD), 11 km (7 mi) from the centre, whose 10,171-ft runway is long enough for long-haul wide-body aircraft. The alternatives are Bergerac Dordogne-Périgord airport (EGC, 87 km).
| Airport | Code | From centre | Longest runway | Elevation |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Bordeaux–Mérignac Airport | BOD | 11 km (7 mi) | 10,171 ft | 162 ft |
| Bergerac Dordogne-Périgord airport (regional) | EGC | 87 km (54 mi) | 7,234 ft | 171 ft |
Runway length is a practical tell: at 10,171 ft, BOD can take the largest long-haul aircraft, so direct intercontinental flights are physically possible here. The airport sits at 162 ft; that is low enough that altitude never restricts departures.
