Fukuoka is served by 6 airports with scheduled flights within 100 km. The closest large one is Fukuoka Airport (FUK), 4 km (2 mi) from the centre, with a longest runway of 9,186 ft, which limits it to short and medium-haul aircraft.

| Airport | Code | From centre | Longest runway | Elevation |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Fukuoka Airport | FUK | 4 km (2 mi) | 9,186 ft | 32 ft |
| Kyushu Saga International Airport | HSG | 51 km (32 mi) | 6,562 ft | 6 ft |
| Kitakyushu Airport | KKJ | 63 km (39 mi) | 8,202 ft | 21 ft |

| Iki Airport (regional) | IKI | 61 km (38 mi) | 4,331 ft | 41 ft |
Runway length is a practical tell: at 9,186 ft, FUK handles short and medium-haul aircraft, so a long-haul trip will connect somewhere else first. The airport sits at 32 ft; that is low enough that altitude never restricts departures.
