Libreville is served by 2 airports with scheduled flights within 100 km. The closest large one is Libreville Leon M'ba International Airport (LBV), 9 km (6 mi) from the centre, with a longest runway of 9,844 ft, which limits it to short and medium-haul aircraft.

| Airport | Code | From centre | Longest runway | Elevation |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Libreville Leon M'ba International Airport | LBV | 9 km (6 mi) | 9,844 ft | 39 ft |
| Corisco International Airport | OCS | 59 km (37 mi) | 10,220 ft | 55 ft |
Runway length is a practical tell: at 9,844 ft, LBV handles short and medium-haul aircraft, so a long-haul trip will connect somewhere else first. The airport sits at 39 ft; that is low enough that altitude never restricts departures.
