Flights to Chihuahua
Which airport to land at, how far each is from the centre, and where the routes go. Live fares are booked here.
Chihuahua is served by one airport with scheduled flights. The closest large one is General Roberto Fierro Villalobos International Airport (CUU), 14 km (9 mi) from the centre, with a longest runway of 8,530 ft, which limits it to short and medium-haul aircraft.
| Airport | Code | From centre | Longest runway | Elevation |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| General Roberto Fierro Villalobos International Airport | CUU | 14 km (9 mi) | 8,530 ft | 4,462 ft |
Runway length is a practical tell: at 8,530 ft, CUU handles short and medium-haul aircraft, so a long-haul trip will connect somewhere else first. The airport sits at 4,462 ft; that altitude thins the air enough to affect take-off performance on hot days, which is why summer departures from high airports are sometimes weight-restricted.
