Flights to Kerman
Which airport to land at, how far each is from the centre, and where the routes go. Live fares are booked here.
Kerman is served by 2 airports with scheduled flights within 100 km. The closest large one is Ayatollah Hashemi Rafsanjani International Airport (KER), 12 km (7 mi) from the centre, whose 12,635-ft runway is long enough for long-haul wide-body aircraft. The alternatives are Rafsanjan Airport (RJN, 99 km).
| Airport | Code | From centre | Longest runway | Elevation |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Ayatollah Hashemi Rafsanjani International Airport | KER | 12 km (7 mi) | 12,635 ft | 5,741 ft |
| Rafsanjan Airport (regional) | RJN | 99 km (62 mi) | 9,814 ft | 5,298 ft |
Runway length is a practical tell: at 12,635 ft, KER can take the largest long-haul aircraft, so direct intercontinental flights are physically possible here. The airport sits at 5,741 ft; that altitude thins the air enough to affect take-off performance on hot days, which is why summer departures from high airports are sometimes weight-restricted.
