| Airport | Code | From centre | Longest runway | Elevation |
|---|---|---|---|---|

Runway length is a practical tell: at 9,840 ft, ITM handles short and medium-haul aircraft, so a long-haul trip will connect somewhere else first. The airport sits at 50 ft; that is low enough that altitude never restricts departures.
