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 Tlemcen
Tlemcen is served by 2 airports with scheduled flights within 100 km. The closest large one is Zenata – Messali El Hadj Airport (TLM), 20 km (12 mi) from the centre, with a longest runway of 8,530 ft, which limits it to short and medium-haul aircraft. The alternatives are Oujda Angads Airport (OUD, 57 km).
| Airport | Code | From centre | Longest runway | Elevation |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Zenata – Messali El Hadj Airport | TLM | 20 km (12 mi) | 8,530 ft | 814 ft |
| Oujda Angads Airport | OUD | 57 km (35 mi) | 9,843 ft | 1,535 ft |
One end has no runway over 10,000 ft, so at 9,534 km (5,924 mi) this pair is unlikely to be flown nonstop by a wide-body; expect a connection.
