Victoria is served by 2 airports with scheduled flights within 100 km. The closest large one is Seychelles International Airport (SEZ), 10 km (6 mi) from the centre, with a longest runway of 9,800 ft, which limits it to short and medium-haul aircraft.

Runway length is a practical tell: at 9,800 ft, SEZ handles short and medium-haul aircraft, so a long-haul trip will connect somewhere else first. The airport sits at 10 ft; that is low enough that altitude never restricts departures.
