Da Nang International Airport is a near sea-level field at 33 ft (10 m), positioned at 16.0439° N, 108.1990° E in the Northern tropics. The runway snapshot lists 2 runways and a longest runway of 11,483 ft / 3,500 m. The airport clock uses Asia/Ho_Chi_Minh (ICT, UTC+07:00), so cross-date arrivals should be checked against this zone rather than the airline origin city.
Hòa Cường is the closest retained city-time anchor at 1.8 km. HPH Haiphong (Hai An) is the closest retained airport alternative at 553 km.
DAD is compared with HPH Haiphong (Hai An) at 553 km, LTH Ho Chi Minh City (Long Thanh) at 599 km, SGN Ho Chi Minh City at 605 km, HAN Hanoi (Soc Son) at 628 km, VCA Can Tho at 715 km inside the retained Vietnam airport set, which is useful when backup airports share the same country context but differ by city, route network, and clock behavior.

These operational notes prefer the structured airport facts snapshot, then fall back to the accepted airport reference at danangairportonline.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.
DAD uses Asia/Ho_Chi_Minh (ICT, UTC+07:00). Use this before overnight arrivals, cross-date departures, and same-day connections.
Da Nang International Airport is about 3.5 km from central Da Nang; build that transfer into arrival and check-in planning.
HPH Haiphong (Hai An) is the closest retained alternate at 553 km, time difference +0h.
danangairportonline.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 DAD inside the retained airport graph by country, timezone, elevation, and coordinate neighbors. They are deterministic dataset facts, not generated flight claims.
DAD ranks #1 in the curated Vietnam airport set when large airports are listed before medium airports, then sorted by IATA code. The retained country set has 6 airports.
DAD shares Asia/Ho_Chi_Minh with LTH Ho Chi Minh City (Long Thanh) VN · SGN Ho Chi Minh City VN · VCA Can Tho VN. This helps separate same-clock airports by city, country, code, and geography.
