East Chattanooga is served by one airport with scheduled flights. The closest large one is Chattanooga Metropolitan Airport (Lovell Field) (CHA), 5 km (3 mi) from the centre, with a longest runway of 7,400 ft, which limits it to short and medium-haul aircraft.

|---|---|---|---|---|
| Chattanooga Metropolitan Airport (Lovell Field) (regional) | CHA | 5 km (3 mi) | 7,400 ft | 683 ft |
Runway length is a practical tell: at 7,400 ft, CHA handles short and medium-haul aircraft, so a long-haul trip will connect somewhere else first. The airport sits at 683 ft; that is low enough that altitude never restricts departures.
