| Airport | Code | From centre | Longest runway | Elevation |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Robert Gabriel Mugabe International Airport | HRE | 9 km (6 mi) | 15,502 ft | 4,887 ft |
Runway length is a practical tell: at 15,502 ft, HRE can take the largest long-haul aircraft, so direct intercontinental flights are physically possible here. The airport sits at 4,887 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.
