Aleppo International Airport is a low-elevation field at 1,276 ft (389 m), positioned at 36.1813° N, 37.2269° E in the Northern mid-latitudes. The runway snapshot lists 1 runway and a longest runway of 9,547 ft / 2,910 m. The airport clock uses Asia/Damascus (GMT+3, UTC+03:00), so cross-date arrivals should be checked against this zone rather than the airline origin city.
Aleppo is the closest retained city-time anchor at 6.3 km. GZT Gaziantep is the closest retained airport alternative at 88 km.
ALP is compared with DAM Damascus at 315 km inside the retained Syria airport set, which is useful when backup airports share the same country context but differ by city, route network, and clock behavior.
ALP-GZT Gaziantep: 88 km, about 57m, +0h. ALP-ADA Seyhan: 195 km, about 1h 5m, +0h. ALP-COV Tarsus: 208 km, about 1h 6m, +0h. These are distance and timezone references, not live flight availability claims.

OurAirports classifies ALP as a large airport with scheduled service; the airport name and codes identify it as an international gateway for Aleppo.
ALP (OSAP) is a low-elevation field at 1,276 ft (389 m) in the mid-latitudes, kept in the curated set for its route, timezone, and market-planning value.
ALP sits in a broader regional network with 3 nearby curated alternatives, so airline choice and connection strategy are part of the planning story here.
ALP's runway record lists 1 runway, with the longest runway at 9,547 ft / 2,910 m and source surfaces recorded as asphalt.
A specific operator or management record for ALP is not currently in our source set, so this page leans on regulator and country context rather than inventing one.
These operational notes prefer the structured airport facts snapshot, then fall back to the accepted airport reference at aleppo-airport.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.
ALP uses Asia/Damascus (GMT+3, UTC+03:00). Use this before overnight arrivals, cross-date departures, and same-day connections.
Aleppo International Airport is about 6.3 km from central Aleppo; build that transfer into arrival and check-in planning.
GZT Gaziantep is the closest retained alternate at 88 km, time difference +0h.
aleppo-airport.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 ALP inside the retained airport graph by country, timezone, elevation, and coordinate neighbors. They are deterministic dataset facts, not generated flight claims.
ALP ranks #1 in the curated Syria airport set when large airports are listed before medium airports, then sorted by IATA code. The retained country set has 2 airports.
ALP shares Asia/Damascus with DAM Damascus SY. This helps separate same-clock airports by city, country, code, and geography.
ALP is 1,276 ft (389 m). Closest elevation peers in the retained airport set include STR 1,276 ft (389 m) (0 ft delta) · MTY 1,278 ft (390 m) (2 ft delta) · KRT 1,265 ft (386 m) (11 ft delta) · OKC 1,295 ft (395 m) (19 ft delta) · BKO 1,247 ft (380 m) (29 ft delta).
