Kanchipuram is served by 3 airports with scheduled flights within 100 km. The closest large one is Chennai International Airport (MAA), 54 km (34 mi) from the centre, whose 12,001-ft runway is long enough for long-haul wide-body aircraft. The alternatives are Tirupati International Airport (TIR, 90 km), Pondicherry Airport (PNY, 97 km).
| Airport | Code | From centre | Longest runway | Elevation |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Chennai International Airport | MAA | 54 km (34 mi) | 12,001 ft | 52 ft |
| Tirupati International Airport | TIR | 90 km (56 mi) | 12,500 ft | 350 ft |
| Pondicherry Airport (regional) | PNY | 97 km (60 mi) | 4,921 ft | 134 ft |
Runway length is a practical tell: at 12,001 ft, MAA can take the largest long-haul aircraft, so direct intercontinental flights are physically possible here. The airport sits at 52 ft; that is low enough that altitude never restricts departures.
