|---|---|---|---|---|
| Esenboğa International Airport | ESB | 54 km (34 mi) | 12,303 ft | 3,125 ft |
Runway length is a practical tell: at 12,303 ft, ESB can take the largest long-haul aircraft, so direct intercontinental flights are physically possible here. The airport sits at 3,125 ft; that is low enough that altitude never restricts departures.
