Valencia is served by 2 airports with scheduled flights within 100 km. The closest large one is Valencia Airport (VLC), 9 km (6 mi) from the centre, with a longest runway of 8,858 ft, which limits it to short and medium-haul aircraft. The alternatives are Castellón-Costa Azahar Airport (CDT, 91 km).
| Airport | Code | From centre | Longest runway | Elevation |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Valencia Airport | VLC | 9 km (6 mi) | 8,858 ft | 240 ft |
| Castellón-Costa Azahar Airport (regional) | CDT | 91 km (57 mi) | 8,858 ft | 1,182 ft |
Runway length is a practical tell: at 8,858 ft, VLC handles short and medium-haul aircraft, so a long-haul trip will connect somewhere else first. The airport sits at 240 ft; that is low enough that altitude never restricts departures.
