| Airport | Code | From centre | Longest runway | Elevation |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Cotonou Cadjehoun International Airport | COO | 29 km (18 mi) | 7,906 ft | 19 ft |
| Murtala Muhammed International Airport | LOS | 80 km (50 mi) | 12,794 ft | 135 ft |
Runway length is a practical tell: at 7,906 ft, COO handles short and medium-haul aircraft, so a long-haul trip will connect somewhere else first. The airport sits at 19 ft; that is low enough that altitude never restricts departures.
