Adnan Menderes International Airport is a low-elevation field at 412 ft (126 m), positioned at 38.2924° N, 27.1570° E in the Northern mid-latitudes. The runway snapshot lists 2 runways and a longest runway of 10,630 ft / 3,240 m. The airport clock uses Europe/Istanbul (TRT, UTC+03:00), so cross-date arrivals should be checked against this zone rather than the airline origin city.
Menderes is the closest retained city-time anchor at 5.2 km. ATH Spata-Artemida is the closest retained airport alternative at 284 km.
ADB is compared with ISL Istanbul(Bakırköy) at 330 km, SAW Pendik, Istanbul at 343 km, IST Istanbul at 358 km, ESB Ankara at 543 km, NAV Nevşehir at 644 km inside the retained Turkey airport set, which is useful when backup airports share the same country context but differ by city, route network, and clock behavior.
ADB-ATH Spata-Artemida: 284 km, about 1h 12m, +0h. ADB-ISL Istanbul(Bakırköy): 330 km, about 1h 15m, +0h. ADB-SAW Pendik, Istanbul: 343 km, about 1h 16m, +0h. These are distance and timezone references, not live flight availability claims.

ADB (LTBJ) is a low-elevation field at 412 ft (126 m) in the mid-latitudes, kept in the curated set for its route, timezone, and market-planning value.

TAV Airports Holding is the clearest operator or management signal we currently have on file for ADB.
These operational notes prefer the structured airport facts snapshot, then fall back to the accepted airport reference at adnanmenderesairport.com, then blend that with local timezone, route, and city-access data already on this page.
These are the specific situations where this airport page earns its keep: time-zone conversion, city transfer planning, nearby airport backup logic, and source-confidence checks before acting.
ADB uses Europe/Istanbul (TRT, UTC+03:00). Use this before overnight arrivals, cross-date departures, and same-day connections.
Adnan Menderes International Airport is about 13 km from central Gaziemir; build that transfer into arrival and check-in planning.
ATH Spata-Artemida is the closest retained alternate at 284 km, time difference +0h.
adnanmenderesairport.com is listed as the official airport website in the airport facts snapshot; live schedules, gates, routes, terminals, and NOTAM-sensitive operations still need official airport or airline verification.
These comparisons place ADB inside the retained airport graph by country, timezone, elevation, and coordinate neighbors. They are deterministic dataset facts, not generated flight claims.
ADB ranks #2 in the curated Turkey airport set when large airports are listed before medium airports, then sorted by IATA code. The retained country set has 10 airports.
ADB shares Europe/Istanbul with ADA Seyhan TR · ASR Kayseri TR · COV Tarsus TR · ESB Ankara TR · GZT Gaziantep TR · ISL Istanbul(Bakırköy) TR. This helps separate same-clock airports by city, country, code, and geography.
