Flights to Thiès
Which airport to land at, how far each is from the centre, and where the routes go. Live fares are booked here.
Thiès is served by one airport with scheduled flights. The closest large one is Blaise Diagne International Airport (DSS), 21 km (13 mi) from the centre, whose 11,483-ft runway is long enough for long-haul wide-body aircraft.
| Airport | Code | From centre | Longest runway | Elevation |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Blaise Diagne International Airport | DSS | 21 km (13 mi) | 11,483 ft | 290 ft |
Runway length is a practical tell: at 11,483 ft, DSS can take the largest long-haul aircraft, so direct intercontinental flights are physically possible here. The airport sits at 290 ft; that is low enough that altitude never restricts departures.
