Flights to Cape Coast
Which airport to land at, how far each is from the centre, and where the routes go. Live fares are booked here.
Cape Coast is served by one airport with scheduled flights. The closest large one is Takoradi Airport (TKD), 63 km (39 mi) from the centre, with a longest runway of 5,745 ft, which limits it to short and medium-haul aircraft.
| Airport | Code | From centre | Longest runway | Elevation |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Takoradi Airport (regional) | TKD | 63 km (39 mi) | 5,745 ft | 21 ft |
Runway length is a practical tell: at 5,745 ft, TKD handles short and medium-haul aircraft, so a long-haul trip will connect somewhere else first. The airport sits at 21 ft; that is low enough that altitude never restricts departures.
