Measured airports

How far the airport really is from the city

Every city here is served by more than one airport, and every one of them is somewhere else. The figure beside a city is the distance from a named central square to the terminal, nearest airport to furthest. In Frankfurt that choice is worth 112 km.

Where these numbers come from

10 cities, 27 airports, every kilometre a Google Directions response measured on 2026-09-16 along the shortest route at four in the morning — because a road chosen around traffic describes the traffic, not the distance. Each city is measured from one named point in it, not from the city as a whole: an address the reader can put on a map and check.

There are no ticket prices, departure times or airline names here. That data lives shorter than this page does, and appears only in the search itself, straight from the airline's API.
