Airports at each end
Leaving Luanshya
Luanshya is served by one airport with scheduled flights. The closest large one is Simon Mwansa Kapwepwe International Airport (NLA), 22 km (14 mi) from the centre, whose 11,483-ft runway is long enough for long-haul wide-body aircraft.
Arriving in Jakarta
Jakarta is served by 2 airports with scheduled flights within 100 km. The closest large one is Halim Perdanakusuma International Airport (HLP), 8 km (5 mi) from the centre, with a longest runway of 9,843 ft, which limits it to short and medium-haul aircraft. The alternatives are Soekarno-Hatta International Airport (CGK, 23 km).
| Airport | Code | From centre | Longest runway | Elevation |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Halim Perdanakusuma International Airport | HLP | 8 km (5 mi) | 9,843 ft | 84 ft |
| Soekarno-Hatta International Airport | CGK | 23 km (14 mi) | 12,008 ft | 34 ft |
One end has no runway over 10,000 ft, so at 8,602 km (5,345 mi) this pair is unlikely to be flown nonstop by a wide-body; expect a connection.
