Airports at each end
Leaving Perth
Perth is served by one airport with scheduled flights. The closest large one is Perth International Airport (PER), 10 km (6 mi) from the centre, whose 11,299-ft runway is long enough for long-haul wide-body aircraft.
Arriving in Hobart
Hobart is served by one airport with scheduled flights. The closest large one is Hobart International Airport (HBA), 16 km (10 mi) from the centre, with a longest runway of 8,947 ft, which limits it to short and medium-haul aircraft.
| Airport | Code | From centre | Longest runway | Elevation |

One end has no runway over 10,000 ft, so at 3,010 km (1,871 mi) this pair is unlikely to be flown nonstop by a wide-body; expect a connection.
