EuroAirport Basel–Mulhouse–Freiburg is a low-elevation field at 885 ft (270 m), positioned at 47.6007° N, 7.5211° E in the Northern mid-latitudes. The runway snapshot lists 2 runways and a longest runway of 12,795 ft / 3,900 m. The airport clock uses Europe/Paris (CEST, UTC+02:00), so cross-date arrivals should be checked against this zone rather than the airline origin city.

BSL is compared with SXB Strasbourg at 105 km, LYS Colombier-Saugnieu, Rhône at 279 km, CFE Clermont-Ferrand at 388 km, CDG Paris (Roissy-en-France, Val-d'Oise) at 399 km, ORY Paris (Orly, Val-de-Marne) at 403 km inside the retained France airport set, which is useful when backup airports share the same country context but differ by city, route network, and clock behavior.

OurAirports classifies BSL as a large airport with scheduled service, which gives it stronger planning value than a code-only lookup.
BSL (LFSB) is a low-elevation field at 885 ft (270 m) in the mid-latitudes, kept in the curated set for its route, timezone, and market-planning value.

Civil aviation oversight for BSL runs through Direction générale de l'Aviation civile (DGAC); a more specific operator record is not currently in our source set.
These operational notes prefer the structured airport facts snapshot, then fall back to the accepted airport reference at euroairport.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.
BSL uses Europe/Paris (CEST, UTC+02:00). Use this before overnight arrivals, cross-date departures, and same-day connections.
EuroAirport Basel–Mulhouse–Freiburg is about 22 km from central Bâle / Mulhouse; build that transfer into arrival and check-in planning.
ZRH Zurich is the closest retained alternate at 79 km, time difference +0h.
euroairport.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.

BSL ranks #3 in the curated France airport set when large airports are listed before medium airports, then sorted by IATA code. The retained country set has 15 airports.
BSL shares Europe/Paris with BES Brest FR · BOD Bordeaux FR · BVA Beauvais FR · CDG Paris (Roissy-en-France, Val-d'Oise) FR · CFE Clermont-Ferrand FR · LBG Paris FR. This helps separate same-clock airports by city, country, code, and geography.
