Airports at each end

Arriving in Jaú
Jaú is served by 2 airports with scheduled flights within 100 km. The closest large one is Bauru/Arealva–Moussa Nakhal Tobias State Airport (JTC), 55 km (34 mi) from the centre, with a longest runway of 6,594 ft, which limits it to short and medium-haul aircraft. The alternatives are Araraquara Airport (AQA, 69 km).

|---|---|---|---|---|
| Bauru/Arealva–Moussa Nakhal Tobias State Airport (regional) | JTC | 55 km (34 mi) | 6,594 ft | 1,962 ft |
| Araraquara Airport (regional) | AQA | 69 km (43 mi) | 5,907 ft | 2,334 ft |
