| Airport | Code | From centre | Longest runway | Elevation |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Dortmund Airport | DTM | 10 km (6 mi) | 6,562 ft | 425 ft |
| Düsseldorf Airport | DUS | 55 km (34 mi) | 9,842 ft | 147 ft |

Runway length is a practical tell: at 6,562 ft, DTM handles short and medium-haul aircraft, so a long-haul trip will connect somewhere else first. The airport sits at 425 ft; that is low enough that altitude never restricts departures.
