Flights to Stuttgart
Which airport to land at, how far each is from the centre, and where the routes go. Live fares are booked here.
Stuttgart is served by 3 airports with scheduled flights within 100 km. The closest large one is Stuttgart Airport (STR), 11 km (7 mi) from the centre, whose 10,974-ft runway is long enough for long-haul wide-body aircraft. The alternatives are Karlsruhe Baden-Baden Airport (FKB, 80 km), Mannheim-City Airport (MHG, 91 km).
| Airport | Code | From centre | Longest runway | Elevation |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Stuttgart Airport | STR | 11 km (7 mi) | 10,974 ft | 1,276 ft |
| Karlsruhe Baden-Baden Airport | FKB | 80 km (50 mi) | 9,787 ft | 408 ft |
| Mannheim-City Airport (regional) | MHG | 91 km (57 mi) | 3,497 ft | 308 ft |
Runway length is a practical tell: at 10,974 ft, STR can take the largest long-haul aircraft, so direct intercontinental flights are physically possible here. The airport sits at 1,276 ft; that is low enough that altitude never restricts departures.
