Flights to Kaduna
Which airport to land at, how far each is from the centre, and where the routes go. Live fares are booked here.
Kaduna is served by one airport with scheduled flights. The closest large one is Kaduna International Airport (KAD), 23 km (14 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 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Kaduna International Airport | KAD | 23 km (14 mi) | 9,843 ft | 2,073 ft |
Runway length is a practical tell: at 9,843 ft, KAD handles short and medium-haul aircraft, so a long-haul trip will connect somewhere else first. The airport sits at 2,073 ft; that is low enough that altitude never restricts departures.
