The alternatives are Dr. Antonio Agostinho Neto International Airport (NBJ, 38 km).

Surakarta is served by 4 airports with scheduled flights within 100 km. The closest large one is Adisoemarmo International Airport (SOC), 9 km (6 mi) from the centre, with a longest runway of 8,530 ft, which limits it to short and medium-haul aircraft. The alternatives are Jenderal Ahmad Yani Airport (SRG, 82 km), Yogyakarta International Airport (YIA, 94 km), Adisutjipto International Airport (JOG, 51 km).
