Which airport to land at, how far each is from the centre, and where the routes go. Live fares are booked here.
Masaya is served by one airport with scheduled flights. The closest large one is Augusto C. Sandino (Managua) International Airport (MGA), 20 km (12 mi) from the centre, with a longest runway of 8,012 ft, which limits it to short and medium-haul aircraft.
| Airport | Code | From centre | Longest runway | Elevation |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Augusto C. Sandino (Managua) International Airport | MGA | 20 km (12 mi) | 8,012 ft | 194 ft |
Runway length is a practical tell: at 8,012 ft, MGA handles short and medium-haul aircraft, so a long-haul trip will connect somewhere else first. The airport sits at 194 ft; that is low enough that altitude never restricts departures.
