Airports at each end
Leaving Maringá
Maringá is served by 2 airports with scheduled flights within 100 km. The closest large one is Regional de Maringá - Sílvio Name Júnior Airport (MGF), 10 km (6 mi) from the centre, with a longest runway of 7,783 ft, which limits it to short and medium-haul aircraft. The alternatives are Governor José Richa Airport (LDB, 83 km).
Arriving in Cape Town
Cape Town is served by one airport with scheduled flights. The closest large one is Cape Town International Airport (CPT), 18 km (11 mi) from the centre, whose 10,502-ft runway is long enough for long-haul wide-body aircraft.
| Airport | Code | From centre | Longest runway | Elevation |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Cape Town International Airport | CPT | 18 km (11 mi) | 10,502 ft | 151 ft |
One end has no runway over 10,000 ft, so at 6,834 km (4,247 mi) this pair is unlikely to be flown nonstop by a wide-body; expect a connection.
