Airports at each end
Leaving Lagos
Lagos is served by one airport with scheduled flights. The closest large one is Murtala Muhammed International Airport (LOS), 16 km (10 mi) from the centre, whose 12,794-ft runway is long enough for long-haul wide-body aircraft.
Arriving in Maran
Maran is served by one airport with scheduled flights. The closest large one is Kuantan Airport (KUA), 53 km (33 mi) from the centre, with a longest runway of 9,200 ft, which limits it to short and medium-haul aircraft.
| Airport | Code | From centre | Longest runway | Elevation |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Kuantan Airport (regional) | KUA | 53 km (33 mi) | 9,200 ft | 58 ft |
One end has no runway over 10,000 ft, so at 10,996 km (6,833 mi) this pair is unlikely to be flown nonstop by a wide-body; expect a connection.
