Airports at each end
Leaving Lichuan
Lichuan is served by 2 airports with scheduled flights within 100 km. The closest large one is Enshi Xujiaping Airport (ENH), 61 km (38 mi) from the centre, with a longest runway of 6,890 ft, which limits it to short and medium-haul aircraft. The alternatives are Qianjiang Wulingshan Airport (JIQ, 87 km).
Arriving in Mumbai
Mumbai is served by 2 airports with scheduled flights within 100 km. The closest large one is Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj International Airport (BOM), 2 km (1 mi) from the centre, whose 11,511-ft runway is long enough for long-haul wide-body aircraft. The alternatives are Navi Mumbai International Airport (NMI, 22 km).
| Airport | Code | From centre | Longest runway | Elevation |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj International Airport | BOM | 2 km (1 mi) | 11,511 ft | 39 ft |
| Navi Mumbai International Airport | NMI | 22 km (14 mi) | 12,139 ft | 184 ft |
One end has no runway over 10,000 ft, so at 3,823 km (2,376 mi) this pair is unlikely to be flown nonstop by a wide-body; expect a connection.
