Airports at each end
Leaving Shanghai
Shanghai is served by 3 airports with scheduled flights within 100 km. The closest large one is Shanghai Hongqiao International Airport (SHA), 12 km (7 mi) from the centre, whose 11,154-ft runway is long enough for long-haul wide-body aircraft. The alternatives are Shanghai Pudong International Airport (PVG, 34 km), Jiaxing Nanhu Airport (JNH, 96 km).
Arriving in Torreón
Torreón is served by one airport with scheduled flights. The closest large one is Francisco Sarabia Tinoco International Airport (TRC), 3 km (2 mi) from the centre, with a longest runway of 9,039 ft, which limits it to short and medium-haul aircraft.
| Airport | Code | From centre | Longest runway | Elevation |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Francisco Sarabia Tinoco International Airport (regional) | TRC | 3 km (2 mi) | 9,039 ft | 3,688 ft |
One end has no runway over 10,000 ft, so at 12,105 km (7,521 mi) this pair is unlikely to be flown nonstop by a wide-body; expect a connection.
