| Airport | Code | From centre | Longest runway | Elevation |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Cheongju International Airport/Cheongju Air Base (K-59/G-513) | CJJ | 33 km (21 mi) | 9,000 ft | 191 ft |
| Seoul Gimpo International Airport | GMP | 90 km (56 mi) | 11,811 ft | 59 ft |
| Incheon International Airport | ICN | 96 km (60 mi) | 13,123 ft | 23 ft |
Runway length is a practical tell: at 9,000 ft, CJJ handles short and medium-haul aircraft, so a long-haul trip will connect somewhere else first. The airport sits at 191 ft; that is low enough that altitude never restricts departures.
