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 Constantine
Constantine is served by 3 airports with scheduled flights within 100 km. The closest large one is Mohamed Boudiaf International Airport (CZL), 10 km (6 mi) from the centre, with a longest runway of 9,843 ft, which limits it to short and medium-haul aircraft. The alternatives are Batna Mostefa Ben Boulaid Airport (BLJ, 73 km), Jijel Ferhat Abbas Airport (GJL, 82 km).
| Airport | Code | From centre | Longest runway | Elevation |

| Batna Mostefa Ben Boulaid Airport | BLJ | 73 km (45 mi) | 9,843 ft | 2,697 ft |
| Jijel Ferhat Abbas Airport | GJL | 82 km (51 mi) | 7,874 ft | 36 ft |
One end has no runway over 10,000 ft, so at 8,911 km (5,537 mi) this pair is unlikely to be flown nonstop by a wide-body; expect a connection.
