Airports at each end
Leaving Abidjan
Abidjan is served by one airport with scheduled flights. The closest large one is Félix-Houphouët-Boigny International Airport (ABJ), 13 km (8 mi) from the centre, with a longest runway of 9,843 ft, which limits it to short and medium-haul aircraft.
Arriving in Rawang
Rawang is served by 2 airports with scheduled flights within 100 km. The closest large one is Sultan Abdul Aziz Shah International Airport (SZB), 21 km (13 mi) from the centre, whose 12,401-ft runway is long enough for long-haul wide-body aircraft. The alternatives are Kuala Lumpur International Airport (KUL, 66 km).
| Airport | Code | From centre | Longest runway | Elevation |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Sultan Abdul Aziz Shah International Airport | SZB | 21 km (13 mi) | 12,401 ft | 90 ft |
| Kuala Lumpur International Airport | KUL | 66 km (41 mi) | 13,530 ft | 69 ft |
One end has no runway over 10,000 ft, so at 11,693 km (7,266 mi) this pair is unlikely to be flown nonstop by a wide-body; expect a connection.
