Markham is served by 6 airports with scheduled flights within 100 km. The closest large one is Toronto Pearson International Airport (YYZ), 36 km (22 mi) from the centre, whose 11,120-ft runway is long enough for long-haul wide-body aircraft. The alternatives are John C. Munro Hamilton International Airport (YHM, 94 km), Billy Bishop Toronto City Airport (YTZ, 29 km), Barrie-Lake Simcoe Regional Airport (YLK, 72 km), Niagara District Airport (YCM, 75 km), Peterborough Regional Airport (YPQ, 83 km).
| Airport | Code | From centre | Longest runway | Elevation |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Toronto Pearson International Airport | YYZ | 36 km (22 mi) | 11,120 ft | 569 ft |
| John C. Munro Hamilton International Airport | YHM | 94 km (58 mi) | 10,006 ft | 780 ft |

Runway length is a practical tell: at 11,120 ft, YYZ can take the largest long-haul aircraft, so direct intercontinental flights are physically possible here. The airport sits at 569 ft; that is low enough that altitude never restricts departures.
