Airports at each end
Leaving Lahore
Lahore is served by 2 airports with scheduled flights within 100 km. The closest large one is Allama Iqbal International Airport (LHE), 6 km (4 mi) from the centre, whose 11,024-ft runway is long enough for long-haul wide-body aircraft. The alternatives are Sri Guru Ram Das Ji International Airport (ATQ, 46 km).
Arriving in Kure
Kure is served by 4 airports with scheduled flights within 100 km. The closest large one is Hiroshima Airport (HIJ), 40 km (25 mi) from the centre, with a longest runway of 9,842 ft, which limits it to short and medium-haul aircraft. The alternatives are Matsuyama Airport (MYJ, 47 km), Iwakuni Kintaikyo Airport (IWK, 31 km), Iwami Airport (IWJ, 87 km).
| Airport | Code | From centre | Longest runway | Elevation |

| Hiroshima Airport | HIJ | 40 km (25 mi) | 9,842 ft | 1,088 ft |
| Matsuyama Airport | MYJ | 47 km (29 mi) | 8,200 ft | 25 ft |
