| Airport | Code | From centre | Longest runway | Elevation |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Alicante-Elche Miguel Hernández Airport | ALC | 13 km (8 mi) | 9,842 ft | 142 ft |
| Region of Murcia International Airport | RMU | 63 km (39 mi) | 9,842 ft | 644 ft |
Runway length is a practical tell: at 9,842 ft, ALC handles short and medium-haul aircraft, so a long-haul trip will connect somewhere else first. The airport sits at 142 ft; that is low enough that altitude never restricts departures.
