Airports at each end
Leaving Lüliang
Lüliang is served by one airport with scheduled flights. The closest large one is Lüliang Dawu Airport (LLV), 18 km (11 mi) from the centre, with a longest runway of 8,530 ft, which limits it to short and medium-haul aircraft.
Arriving in Cairo
Cairo is served by 3 airports with scheduled flights within 100 km. The closest large one is Cairo International Airport (CAI), 15 km (9 mi) from the centre, whose 13,124-ft runway is long enough for long-haul wide-body aircraft. The alternatives are Sphinx International Airport (SPX, 34 km), Capital International Airport (CCE, 57 km).
| Airport | Code | From centre | Longest runway | Elevation |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Cairo International Airport | CAI | 15 km (9 mi) | 13,124 ft | 322 ft |
| Sphinx International Airport | SPX | 34 km (21 mi) | 11,975 ft | 510 ft |
| Capital International Airport (regional) | CCE | 57 km (35 mi) | 11,980 ft | 761 ft |
One end has no runway over 10,000 ft, so at 7,207 km (4,478 mi) this pair is unlikely to be flown nonstop by a wide-body; expect a connection.
