Flights to Gboko
Which airport to land at, how far each is from the centre, and where the routes go. Live fares are booked here.
Gboko is served by one airport with scheduled flights. The closest large one is Makurdi Airport (MDI), 60 km (37 mi) from the centre, with a longest runway of 9,830 ft, which limits it to short and medium-haul aircraft.
| Airport | Code | From centre | Longest runway | Elevation |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Makurdi Airport (regional) | MDI | 60 km (37 mi) | 9,830 ft | 371 ft |
Runway length is a practical tell: at 9,830 ft, MDI handles short and medium-haul aircraft, so a long-haul trip will connect somewhere else first. The airport sits at 371 ft; that is low enough that altitude never restricts departures.
