Wikidata airport entity: Q909488 · Brasilia President Juscelino Kubitschek International Airport. Administrative area: Lago Sul. Named after: Juscelino Kubitschek. Entity official-site cross-check: bsb.aero
Presidente Juscelino Kubitschek International Airport is a moderate-elevation field at 3,497 ft (1,066 m), positioned at 15.8692° S, 47.9208° W in the Southern tropics. The runway snapshot lists 2 runways and a longest runway of 10,827 ft / 3,300 m. The airport clock uses America/Sao_Paulo (BRT, UTC-03:00), so cross-date arrivals should be checked against this zone rather than the airline origin city.
Lago Sul is the closest retained city-time anchor at 4.7 km. GYN Goiânia is the closest retained airport alternative at 163 km.
BSB is compared with GYN Goiânia at 163 km, CNF Belo Horizonte at 592 km, GRU São Paulo at 854 km, CGH São Paulo at 873 km, GIG Rio De Janeiro at 914 km inside the retained Brazil airport set, which is useful when backup airports share the same country context but differ by city, route network, and clock behavior.
BSB-GYN Goiânia: 163 km, about 1h 2m, +0h. BSB-CNF Belo Horizonte: 592 km, about 1h 35m, +0h. BSB-GRU São Paulo: 854 km, about 1h 55m, +0h. These are distance and timezone references, not live flight availability claims.

OurAirports classifies BSB as a large airport with scheduled service; the airport name and codes identify it as an international gateway for Brasília.
BSB (SBBR) is a moderate-elevation field at 3,497 ft (1,066 m) in the tropics, kept in the curated set for its route, timezone, and market-planning value.
BSB sits in a broader regional network with 3 nearby curated alternatives, so airline choice and connection strategy are part of the planning story here.

Inframerica is the clearest operator or management signal we currently have on file for BSB.
These operational notes prefer the structured airport facts snapshot, then fall back to the accepted airport reference at infraero.gov.br, 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.
BSB uses America/Sao_Paulo (BRT, UTC-03:00). Use this before overnight arrivals, cross-date departures, and same-day connections.
Presidente Juscelino Kubitschek International Airport is about 10.0 km from central Brasília; build that transfer into arrival and check-in planning.
GYN Goiânia is the closest retained alternate at 163 km, time difference +0h.
infraero.gov.br 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 BSB inside the retained airport graph by country, timezone, elevation, and coordinate neighbors. They are deterministic dataset facts, not generated flight claims.
BSB ranks #2 in the curated Brazil airport set when large airports are listed before medium airports, then sorted by IATA code. The retained country set has 15 airports.
BSB shares America/Sao_Paulo with CGH São Paulo BR · CNF Belo Horizonte BR · CWB Curitiba BR · GIG Rio De Janeiro BR · GRU São Paulo BR · GYN Goiânia BR. This helps separate same-clock airports by city, country, code, and geography.
BSB is 3,497 ft (1,066 m). Closest elevation peers in the retained airport set include ASR 3,463 ft (1,056 m) (34 ft delta) · YYC 3,557 ft (1,084 m) (60 ft delta) · IKA 3,305 ft (1,007 m) (192 ft delta) · MHD 3,263 ft (995 m) (234 ft delta) · KIS 3,734 ft (1,138 m) (237 ft delta).
