Airports at each end
Leaving Timika
Timika is served by one airport with scheduled flights. The closest large one is Mozes Kilangin Airport (TIM), 25 km (16 mi) from the centre, with a longest runway of 7,841 ft, which limits it to short and medium-haul aircraft.
Arriving in Lima
Lima is served by one airport with scheduled flights. The closest large one is Jorge Chávez International Airport (LIM), 10 km (6 mi) from the centre, whose 11,506-ft runway is long enough for long-haul wide-body aircraft.
| Airport | Code | From centre | Longest runway | Elevation |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Jorge Chávez International Airport | LIM | 10 km (6 mi) | 11,506 ft | 113 ft |
One end has no runway over 10,000 ft, so at 15,854 km (9,851 mi) this pair is unlikely to be flown nonstop by a wide-body; expect a connection.
