Shenzhen is served by 5 airports with scheduled flights within 100 km. The closest large one is Shenzhen Bao'an International Airport (SZX), 29 km (18 mi) from the centre, whose 12,467-ft runway is long enough for long-haul wide-body aircraft. The alternatives are Hong Kong International Airport (HKG, 30 km), Macau International Airport (MFM, 66 km), Zhuhai Jinwan Airport (ZUH, 93 km), Huizhou Pingtan Airport (HUZ, 78 km).

One end has no runway over 10,000 ft, so at 13,856 km (8,610 mi) this pair is unlikely to be flown nonstop by a wide-body; expect a connection.
