| Jul 31, 2019 at 22:55 | comment | added | Taladris | @Fattie: there was a plan of an airport across the Franco-Swiss border but it was aborted because of WW2: wikiwand.com/en/EuroAirport_Basel_Mulhouse_Freiburg. The project finally became the Basel-Mulhouse-Friburg airport, though completely located in France, is administered by both countries. | |
| Jul 31, 2019 at 20:16 | comment | added | GalacticCowboy | @MarkStewart SAN is ~14 miles from the border, just northwest of downtown San Diego. However, the runway's angle is such that a straight-in flight would have to line up some 38 miles from the runway - east of the city of Tecate - to cross the international border as part of approach for landing. I believe 10 miles is generally considered "standard" for a final approach. | |

| Jul 30, 2019 at 15:45 | comment | added | Midavalo | @MarkStewart The flights into TIJ don't tend to cross the border anywhere near me - they are already well-and-truly coming in to land by the time they go past me, and the ones into SAN are far enough away, so no I hadn't really wondered that (I might now though). Behind my question was the thought I should attempt to fly in/out of some of these neighbour airports (I've flown through SAN many times, but never through TIJ even though I live here) | |
| Jul 30, 2019 at 15:34 | comment | added | Mark Stewart | So is hiding behind your question the other question when you see a plane flying over your house "Is that plane headed to Mexico or the United States?" -- I live near DFW and DAL and planes from the Northeast fly overhead and I try to guess which airport they are headed to. | |

| Jul 29, 2019 at 21:30 | comment | added | user90371 | @DavidRicherby Perhaps you should talk to Notts90, who has an opposing opinion. For my part note the words 'might' and 'check their help...' in my comment. | |
| Jul 29, 2019 at 19:10 | comment | added | Fattie | ah good to know! (actually I thought cointrin "crossed over!") yes, there is a "doorway" from each country! | |
| Jul 29, 2019 at 18:26 | comment | added | Midavalo | @Fattie the Genève Cointrin airport sounds a lot like Tijuana airport -> (from Wikipedia) "The airport lies entirely within Swiss territory, however, its northern limit runs along the Swiss–French border and the airport can be accessed from both countries" - TIJ lies entirely within Mexico however the northern limit runs pretty-much along the Mexico-US border, and the airport can be accessed from both countries (via the Cross Border Express, so this may be different to GVA in that aspect?). Another place to add to my "travel-to" list | |

| Jul 29, 2019 at 16:38 | comment | added | Fattie | Thanks for the great question Midavalo, it will help me with travel planning. BTW a curiosity is Genève Cointrin airport - it actually lies in both Switzerland and France. | |

| Jul 29, 2019 at 11:32 | comment | added | David Richerby | @ReddHerring I doubt this question would be well-received on Aviation. Stack Exchange as a whole doesn't like these kinds of lists of trivia questions. | |

| Jul 29, 2019 at 1:05 | comment | added | Zach Lipton | Given some of the other odd geographic questions we've had here (say, What's the quickest route between antipodes using regularly scheduled transit?), it's hard to see how this is off-topic. | |

| Jul 28, 2019 at 22:31 | comment | added | user90371 | I'm voting to close this question as off-topic because it is not about travel as defined in the help center. Aviation might be a better place to ask but check their help centre before you post. | |
