Flights to Durrës
Which airport to land at, how far each is from the centre, and where the routes go. Live fares are booked here.
Durrës is served by one airport with scheduled flights. The closest large one is Tirana International Airport Mother Teresa (TIA), 24 km (15 mi) from the centre, with a longest runway of 9,843 ft, which limits it to short and medium-haul aircraft.
| Airport | Code | From centre | Longest runway | Elevation |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Tirana International Airport Mother Teresa | TIA | 24 km (15 mi) | 9,843 ft | 126 ft |
Runway length is a practical tell: at 9,843 ft, TIA handles short and medium-haul aircraft, so a long-haul trip will connect somewhere else first. The airport sits at 126 ft; that is low enough that altitude never restricts departures.
