Airports at each end
Leaving Lahore
Lahore is served by 2 airports with scheduled flights within 100 km. The closest large one is Allama Iqbal International Airport (LHE), 6 km (4 mi) from the centre, whose 11,024-ft runway is long enough for long-haul wide-body aircraft. The alternatives are Sri Guru Ram Das Ji International Airport (ATQ, 46 km).
Arriving in London
London is served by 2 airports with scheduled flights within 100 km. The closest large one is London International Airport (YXU), 9 km (6 mi) from the centre, with a longest runway of 8,800 ft, which limits it to short and medium-haul aircraft. The alternatives are Region of Waterloo International Airport (YKF, 87 km).
| Airport | Code | From centre | Longest runway | Elevation |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| London International Airport (regional) | YXU | 9 km (6 mi) | 8,800 ft | 912 ft |
| Region of Waterloo International Airport (regional) | YKF | 87 km (54 mi) | 7,003 ft | 1,054 ft |
One end has no runway over 10,000 ft, so at 11,361 km (7,059 mi) this pair is unlikely to be flown nonstop by a wide-body; expect a connection.
