|---|---|---|---|---|
| Cologne Bonn Airport | CGN | 21 km (13 mi) | 12,516 ft | 302 ft |

Runway length is a practical tell: at 12,516 ft, CGN can take the largest long-haul aircraft, so direct intercontinental flights are physically possible here. The airport sits at 302 ft; that is low enough that altitude never restricts departures.
