The closest large one is Gautam Buddha International Airport (BWA), 82 km (51 mi) from the centre, with a longest runway of 9,843 ft, which limits it to short and medium-haul aircraft.

| Airport | Code | From centre | Longest runway | Elevation |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Gautam Buddha International Airport | BWA | 82 km (51 mi) | 9,843 ft | 358 ft |
| Gorakhpur Airport (regional) | GOP | 9 km (6 mi) | 9,000 ft | 259 ft |
Runway length is a practical tell: at 9,843 ft, BWA handles short and medium-haul aircraft, so a long-haul trip will connect somewhere else first. The airport sits at 358 ft; that is low enough that altitude never restricts departures.
