Flights to Petaling Jaya
Which airport to land at, how far each is from the centre, and where the routes go. Live fares are booked here.
Petaling Jaya is served by 2 airports with scheduled flights within 100 km. The closest large one is Sultan Abdul Aziz Shah International Airport (SZB), 7 km (4 mi) from the centre, whose 12,401-ft runway is long enough for long-haul wide-body aircraft. The alternatives are Kuala Lumpur International Airport (KUL, 42 km).
| Airport | Code | From centre | Longest runway | Elevation |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Sultan Abdul Aziz Shah International Airport | SZB | 7 km (4 mi) | 12,401 ft | 90 ft |
| Kuala Lumpur International Airport | KUL | 42 km (26 mi) | 13,530 ft | 69 ft |
Runway length is a practical tell: at 12,401 ft, SZB can take the largest long-haul aircraft, so direct intercontinental flights are physically possible here. The airport sits at 90 ft; that is low enough that altitude never restricts departures.
