| Airport | Code | From centre | Longest runway | Elevation |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Soummam–Abane Ramdane Airport | BJA | 82 km (51 mi) | 7,874 ft | 20 ft |
| Ain Arnat Airport (regional) | QSF | 64 km (40 mi) | 9,498 ft | 3,360 ft |
Runway length is a practical tell: at 7,874 ft, BJA handles short and medium-haul aircraft, so a long-haul trip will connect somewhere else first. The airport sits at 20 ft; that is low enough that altitude never restricts departures.
