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 Murcia
Murcia is served by 2 airports with scheduled flights within 100 km. The closest large one is Region of Murcia International Airport (RMU), 20 km (12 mi) from the centre, with a longest runway of 9,842 ft, which limits it to short and medium-haul aircraft. The alternatives are Alicante-Elche Miguel Hernández Airport (ALC, 60 km).
| Airport | Code | From centre | Longest runway | Elevation |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Region of Murcia International Airport | RMU | 20 km (12 mi) | 9,842 ft | 644 ft |
| Alicante-Elche Miguel Hernández Airport | ALC | 60 km (37 mi) | 9,842 ft | 142 ft |
One end has no runway over 10,000 ft, so at 9,270 km (5,760 mi) this pair is unlikely to be flown nonstop by a wide-body; expect a connection.
