Providence is served by 6 airports with scheduled flights within 100 km. The closest large one is Rhode Island T. F. Green International Airport (PVD), 11 km (7 mi) from the centre, with a longest runway of 8,700 ft, which limits it to short and medium-haul aircraft. The alternatives are Boston Logan International Airport (BOS, 69 km), Newport State Airport (NPT, 34 km), New Bedford Regional Airport (EWB, 41 km), Westerly State Airport (WST, 62 km), Worcester Regional Airport (ORH, 62 km).
| Airport | Code | From centre | Longest runway | Elevation |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Rhode Island T. F. Green International Airport | PVD | 11 km (7 mi) | 8,700 ft | 55 ft |
| Boston Logan International Airport | BOS | 69 km (43 mi) | 10,083 ft | 20 ft |
| Newport State Airport (regional) | NPT | 34 km (21 mi) | 2,999 ft | 172 ft |

| Worcester Regional Airport (regional) | ORH | 62 km (39 mi) | 7,001 ft | 1,009 ft |
Runway length is a practical tell: at 8,700 ft, PVD handles short and medium-haul aircraft, so a long-haul trip will connect somewhere else first. The airport sits at 55 ft; that is low enough that altitude never restricts departures.
