List of longest runways

Although runway
length may be of some academic interest, in terms of usability for airline
operations, a runway of at least 6000 ft (1,829 m) in length is usually adequate for aircraft
weights below approximately 200000 lb (90,718 kg). Larger aircraft including widebodies

will usually require at least 8000 ft (2,438 m) at sea level and somewhat more at higher elevation
airports. International wide body flights may also have landing
requirements of 10000 ft (3,048 m) or more and takeoff
requirements of 13000 ft (3,962 m) or more.
At sea level
, 10000 ft (3,048 m) can be considered an adequate length to accommodate virtually any aircraft. For example, at O'Hare International Airport
, when landing simultaneously on 22R and 27L or parallel 27R, it is routine for arrivals from the Far East
which would normally be vectored for 22R 7500 ft (2,286 m) or 27R 8000 ft (2,438 m) to request 27L (10000 ft (3,048 m)).
