Airports at each end
Leaving Tianjin
Tianjin is served by 2 airports with scheduled flights within 100 km. The closest large one is Tianjin Binhai International Airport (TSN), 15 km (9 mi) from the centre, whose 11,811-ft runway is long enough for long-haul wide-body aircraft. The alternatives are Beijing Daxing International Airport (PKX, 77 km).

Pasadena is served by 6 airports with scheduled flights within 100 km. The closest large one is Hollywood Burbank/Bob Hope Airport (BUR), 21 km (13 mi) from the centre, with a longest runway of 6,886 ft, which limits it to short and medium-haul aircraft. The alternatives are Los Angeles International Airport (LAX, 33 km), Long Beach International Airport (LGB, 37 km), Ontario International Airport (ONT, 51 km), John Wayne Orange County International Airport (SNA, 58 km), San Bernardino International Airport (SBD, 84 km).
