伊丹空港は、関西空港が出来るまでは国際空港だったが、今では国内線専用の空港となっている。 未だに日本国内の主だった都市34との間に航空路線がある。 利用できる航空会社、就航都市、時刻表については以下を参照してくれ。 伊丹空港・フライトスケジュール 運行頻度に関して言うと、東京(羽田・成田)へは1日約25便、福岡へは約10便、沖縄(那覇)へは約8便と多くの都市へ割合高い頻度で飛んでいる。 ただ、伊丹空港へはLCCが飛んでいないので航空チケットも高いのが難点だ。 伊丹空港は、大阪駅から北に大体10kmほどのところに位置しており、大阪市内中心部や京都などに行くには関西空港よりも伊丹空港の方が近い。
