Grenoble is served by 4 airports with scheduled flights within 100 km. The closest large one is Lyon Saint-Exupéry Airport (LYS), 78 km (48 mi) from the centre, whose 13,124-ft runway is long enough for long-haul wide-body aircraft. The alternatives are Grenoble Alpes Isère Airport (GNB, 36 km), Chambéry Aix les Bains airport (CMF, 53 km), Annecy Meythet airport (NCY, 89 km).
| Airport | Code | From centre | Longest runway | Elevation |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Lyon Saint-Exupéry Airport | LYS | 78 km (48 mi) | 13,124 ft | 821 ft |
| Grenoble Alpes Isère Airport (regional) | GNB | 36 km (22 mi) | 10,007 ft | 1,302 ft |
| Chambéry Aix les Bains airport (regional) | CMF | 53 km (33 mi) | 6,628 ft | 779 ft |
| Annecy Meythet airport (regional) | NCY | 89 km (55 mi) | 5,348 ft | 1,521 ft |
Runway length is a practical tell: at 13,124 ft, LYS can take the largest long-haul aircraft, so direct intercontinental flights are physically possible here. The airport sits at 821 ft; that is low enough that altitude never restricts departures.
