| Airport | Code | From centre | Longest runway | Elevation |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Colombo Ratmalana International Airport | RML | 5 km (3 mi) | 6,013 ft | 22 ft |
| Bandaranaike International Colombo Airport | CMB | 45 km (28 mi) | 10,991 ft | 30 ft |
| Koggala Airport (regional) | KCT | 99 km (62 mi) | 3,142 ft | 10 ft |
Runway length is a practical tell: at 6,013 ft, RML handles short and medium-haul aircraft, so a long-haul trip will connect somewhere else first. The airport sits at 22 ft; that is low enough that altitude never restricts departures.
