Flights to Caracas
Which airport to land at, how far each is from the centre, and where the routes go. Live fares are booked here.
Caracas is served by one airport with scheduled flights. The closest large one is Maiquetía Simón Bolívar International Airport (CCS), 18 km (11 mi) from the centre, whose 11,483-ft runway is long enough for long-haul wide-body aircraft.
| Airport | Code | From centre | Longest runway | Elevation |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Maiquetía Simón Bolívar International Airport | CCS | 18 km (11 mi) | 11,483 ft | 234 ft |
Runway length is a practical tell: at 11,483 ft, CCS can take the largest long-haul aircraft, so direct intercontinental flights are physically possible here. The airport sits at 234 ft; that is low enough that altitude never restricts departures.
