Flights to Mangaluru
Which airport to land at, how far each is from the centre, and where the routes go. Live fares are booked here.
Mangaluru is served by one airport with scheduled flights. The closest large one is Mangaluru International Airport (IXE), 5 km (3 mi) from the centre, with a longest runway of 8,035 ft, which limits it to short and medium-haul aircraft.
| Airport | Code | From centre | Longest runway | Elevation |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Mangaluru International Airport | IXE | 5 km (3 mi) | 8,035 ft | 337 ft |
Runway length is a practical tell: at 8,035 ft, IXE handles short and medium-haul aircraft, so a long-haul trip will connect somewhere else first. The airport sits at 337 ft; that is low enough that altitude never restricts departures.
