Flights to Juba
Which airport to land at, how far each is from the centre, and where the routes go. Live fares are booked here.
Juba is served by one airport with scheduled flights. The closest large one is Juba International Airport (JUB), 3 km (2 mi) from the centre, whose 10,171-ft runway is long enough for long-haul wide-body aircraft.
| Airport | Code | From centre | Longest runway | Elevation |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Juba International Airport | JUB | 3 km (2 mi) | 10,171 ft | 1,513 ft |
Runway length is a practical tell: at 10,171 ft, JUB can take the largest long-haul aircraft, so direct intercontinental flights are physically possible here. The airport sits at 1,513 ft; that is low enough that altitude never restricts departures.
