Airports at each end
Leaving Dongguan
Dongguan is served by 6 airports with scheduled flights within 100 km. The closest large one is Shenzhen Bao'an International Airport (SZX), 42 km (26 mi) from the centre, whose 12,467-ft runway is long enough for long-haul wide-body aircraft. The alternatives are Guangzhou Baiyun International Airport (CAN, 62 km), Hong Kong International Airport (HKG, 80 km), Macau International Airport (MFM, 98 km), Foshan Shadi Airport (FUO, 70 km), Huizhou Pingtan Airport (HUZ, 87 km).
Arriving in Mopti
Mopti is served by one airport with scheduled flights. The closest large one is Mopti Airport (MZI), 12 km (7 mi) from the centre, with a longest runway of 8,340 ft, which limits it to short and medium-haul aircraft.
| Airport | Code | From centre | Longest runway | Elevation |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Mopti Airport (regional) | MZI | 12 km (7 mi) | 8,340 ft | 906 ft |
One end has no runway over 10,000 ft, so at 12,080 km (7,506 mi) this pair is unlikely to be flown nonstop by a wide-body; expect a connection.
