Airports at each end
Leaving Kinshasa
Kinshasa is served by 2 airports with scheduled flights within 100 km. The closest large one is Maya-Maya International Airport (BZV), 11 km (7 mi) from the centre, whose 10,827-ft runway is long enough for long-haul wide-body aircraft. The alternatives are Ndjili International Airport (FIH, 16 km).
Arriving in Chiclayo
Chiclayo is served by one airport with scheduled flights. The closest large one is Capitán FAP José A. Quiñones González International Airport (CIX), 4 km (2 mi) from the centre, with a longest runway of 8,266 ft, which limits it to short and medium-haul aircraft.
| Airport | Code | From centre | Longest runway | Elevation |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Capitán FAP José A. Quiñones González International Airport | CIX | 4 km (2 mi) | 8,266 ft | 97 ft |
One end has no runway over 10,000 ft, so at 10,520 km (6,537 mi) this pair is unlikely to be flown nonstop by a wide-body; expect a connection.
