Flights to Kangsŏn
Which airport to land at, how far each is from the centre, and where the routes go. Live fares are booked here.
Kangsŏn is served by one airport with scheduled flights. The closest large one is Pyongyang Sunan International Airport (FNJ), 33 km (21 mi) from the centre, whose 12,475-ft runway is long enough for long-haul wide-body aircraft.
| Airport | Code | From centre | Longest runway | Elevation |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Pyongyang Sunan International Airport | FNJ | 33 km (21 mi) | 12,475 ft | 117 ft |
Runway length is a practical tell: at 12,475 ft, FNJ can take the largest long-haul aircraft, so direct intercontinental flights are physically possible here. The airport sits at 117 ft; that is low enough that altitude never restricts departures.
