|---|---|---|---|---|
| Kitakyushu Airport | KKJ | 23 km (14 mi) | 8,202 ft | 21 ft |
| Fukuoka Airport | FUK | 84 km (52 mi) | 9,186 ft | 32 ft |

| Iwami Airport (regional) | IWJ | 95 km (59 mi) | 6,562 ft | 184 ft |
Runway length is a practical tell: at 8,202 ft, KKJ handles short and medium-haul aircraft, so a long-haul trip will connect somewhere else first. The airport sits at 21 ft; that is low enough that altitude never restricts departures.
