Airports at each end
Leaving Dalian
Dalian is served by one airport with scheduled flights. The closest large one is Dalian Zhoushuizi International Airport (DLC), 8 km (5 mi) from the centre, whose 10,827-ft runway is long enough for long-haul wide-body aircraft.
Arriving in Brest
Brest is served by one airport with scheduled flights. The closest large one is Brest International Airport (BQT), 12 km (7 mi) from the centre, with a longest runway of 8,596 ft, which limits it to short and medium-haul aircraft.
