Flights to Insein
Which airport to land at, how far each is from the centre, and where the routes go. Live fares are booked here.
Insein is served by one airport with scheduled flights. The closest large one is Yangon International Airport (RGN), 4 km (2 mi) from the centre, whose 11,200-ft runway is long enough for long-haul wide-body aircraft.
| Airport | Code | From centre | Longest runway | Elevation |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Yangon International Airport | RGN | 4 km (2 mi) | 11,200 ft | 109 ft |
Runway length is a practical tell: at 11,200 ft, RGN can take the largest long-haul aircraft, so direct intercontinental flights are physically possible here. The airport sits at 109 ft; that is low enough that altitude never restricts departures.
