| Airport | Code | From centre | Longest runway | Elevation |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| San Antonio International Airport | SAT | 12 km (7 mi) | 8,505 ft | 809 ft |
Runway length is a practical tell: at 8,505 ft, SAT handles short and medium-haul aircraft, so a long-haul trip will connect somewhere else first. The airport sits at 809 ft; that is low enough that altitude never restricts departures.
