| Airport | Code | From centre | Longest runway | Elevation |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Playa de Oro International Airport (regional) | ZLO | 23 km (14 mi) | 7,218 ft | 30 ft |
| Licenciado Miguel de la Madrid International Airport (regional) | CLQ | 82 km (51 mi) | 7,546 ft | 2,467 ft |
Runway length is a practical tell: at 7,218 ft, ZLO handles short and medium-haul aircraft, so a long-haul trip will connect somewhere else first. The airport sits at 30 ft; that is low enough that altitude never restricts departures.
