Airports at each end
Leaving Beijing
Beijing is served by 2 airports with scheduled flights within 100 km. The closest large one is Beijing Capital International Airport (PEK), 25 km (16 mi) from the centre, whose 12,467-ft runway is long enough for long-haul wide-body aircraft. The alternatives are Beijing Daxing International Airport (PKX, 45 km).
Arriving in Alofi
Alofi is served by one airport with scheduled flights. The closest large one is Niue International Airport (IUE), 3 km (2 mi) from the centre, with a longest runway of 7,660 ft, which limits it to short and medium-haul aircraft.
| Airport | Code | From centre | Longest runway | Elevation |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Niue International Airport (regional) | IUE | 3 km (2 mi) | 7,660 ft | 209 ft |
One end has no runway over 10,000 ft, so at 10,044 km (6,241 mi) this pair is unlikely to be flown nonstop by a wide-body; expect a connection.
