Airports at each end
Leaving Chengdu
Chengdu is served by 2 airports with scheduled flights within 100 km. The closest large one is Chengdu Shuangliu International Airport (CTU), 17 km (11 mi) from the centre, whose 11,811-ft runway is long enough for long-haul wide-body aircraft. The alternatives are Chengdu Tianfu International Airport (TFU, 53 km).

Prato is served by 4 airports with scheduled flights within 100 km. The closest large one is Florence Airport, Peretola (FLR), 12 km (7 mi) from the centre, with a longest runway of 5,118 ft, which limits it to short and medium-haul aircraft. The alternatives are Pisa International Airport (PSA, 61 km), Bologna Guglielmo Marconi Airport (BLQ, 74 km), Forlì-Luigi Ridolfi International Airport (FRL, 85 km).

One end has no runway over 10,000 ft, so at 7,923 km (4,923 mi) this pair is unlikely to be flown nonstop by a wide-body; expect a connection.
