| Airport | Code | From centre | Longest runway | Elevation |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Golden Ring Yaroslavl International Airport | IAR | 19 km (12 mi) | 9,870 ft | 287 ft |
| Kostroma Sokerkino Airport (regional) | KMW | 71 km (44 mi) | 5,577 ft | 446 ft |
Runway length is a practical tell: at 9,870 ft, IAR handles short and medium-haul aircraft, so a long-haul trip will connect somewhere else first. The airport sits at 287 ft; that is low enough that altitude never restricts departures.
