Airports at each end
Leaving Istanbul
Istanbul is served by 4 airports with scheduled flights within 100 km. The closest large one is Istanbul Sabiha Gökçen International Airport (SAW), 33 km (21 mi) from the centre, whose 11,614-ft runway is long enough for long-haul wide-body aircraft. The alternatives are İstanbul Airport (IST, 34 km), Tekirdağ Çorlu Airport (TEQ, 87 km), Bursa Yenişehir Airport (YEI, 99 km).
Arriving in Tri-Cities
Tri-Cities is served by 3 airports with scheduled flights within 100 km. The closest large one is Tri Cities Airport (PSC), 6 km (4 mi) from the centre, with a longest runway of 7,707 ft, which limits it to short and medium-haul aircraft. The alternatives are Eastern Oregon Regional Airport at Pendleton (PDT, 67 km), Walla Walla Regional Airport (ALW, 72 km).
| Airport | Code | From centre | Longest runway | Elevation |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Tri Cities Airport (regional) | PSC | 6 km (4 mi) | 7,707 ft | 410 ft |
| Eastern Oregon Regional Airport at Pendleton (regional) | PDT | 67 km (42 mi) | 6,301 ft | 1,497 ft |
| Walla Walla Regional Airport (regional) | ALW | 72 km (45 mi) | 6,527 ft | 1,194 ft |
One end has no runway over 10,000 ft, so at 9,811 km (6,097 mi) this pair is unlikely to be flown nonstop by a wide-body; expect a connection.
