Airports at each end
Leaving Buenos Aires
Buenos Aires is served by 2 airports with scheduled flights within 100 km. The closest large one is Aeroparque Jorge Newbery (AEP), 7 km (4 mi) from the centre, with a longest runway of 7,710 ft, which limits it to short and medium-haul aircraft. The alternatives are Ezeiza International Airport - Ministro Pistarini (EZE, 27 km).
Arriving in Brisbane
Brisbane is served by 3 airports with scheduled flights within 100 km. The closest large one is Brisbane International Airport (BNE), 13 km (8 mi) from the centre, whose 11,680-ft runway is long enough for long-haul wide-body aircraft. The alternatives are Gold Coast Airport (OOL, 91 km), Sunshine Coast Airport (MCY, 97 km).
| Airport | Code | From centre | Longest runway | Elevation |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Brisbane International Airport | BNE | 13 km (8 mi) | 11,680 ft | 13 ft |
| Gold Coast Airport | OOL | 91 km (57 mi) | 8,176 ft | 21 ft |
| Sunshine Coast Airport | MCY | 97 km (60 mi) | 9,186 ft | 15 ft |
One end has no runway over 10,000 ft, so at 12,362 km (7,682 mi) this pair is unlikely to be flown nonstop by a wide-body; expect a connection.
