Fujairah International Airport is a near sea-level field at 152 ft (46 m), positioned at 25.1084° N, 56.3281° E in the Northern subtropics. The runway snapshot lists 1 runway and a longest runway of 10,007 ft / 3,050 m. The airport clock uses Asia/Dubai (GST, UTC+04:00), so cross-date arrivals should be checked against this zone rather than the airline origin city.
Fujairah is the closest retained city-time anchor at 1.6 km. RKT Ras Al Khaimah is the closest retained airport alternative at 68 km.
FJR is compared with RKT Ras Al Khaimah at 68 km, SHJ Sharjah at 85 km, DXB Dubai at 98 km, AAN Al Ain at 119 km, DWC Dubai(Jebel Ali) at 120 km inside the retained United Arab Emirates 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 fujairah-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.
FJR uses Asia/Dubai (GST, UTC+04:00). Use this before overnight arrivals, cross-date departures, and same-day connections.
Fujairah International Airport is about 103 km from central Fujairah; build that transfer into arrival and check-in planning.
RKT Ras Al Khaimah is the closest retained alternate at 68 km, time difference +0h.
fujairah-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 FJR inside the retained airport graph by country, timezone, elevation, and coordinate neighbors. They are deterministic dataset facts, not generated flight claims.
FJR ranks #6 in the curated United Arab Emirates airport set when large airports are listed before medium airports, then sorted by IATA code. The retained country set has 8 airports.
FJR shares Asia/Dubai with AAN Al Ain AE · AUH Abu Dhabi AE · AZI Abu Dhabi AE · DWC Dubai(Jebel Ali) AE · DXB Dubai AE · RKT Ras Al Khaimah AE. This helps separate same-clock airports by city, country, code, and geography.

Because the airport sits well outside central Fujairah, surface transfer planning matters almost as much as flight timing, especially for late arrivals and early departures.
Dubai is the nearest mapped city anchor in the current dataset, which makes it the cleanest companion page when travelers want to switch from airport timing into local city timing.
Fujairah International Airport has 5 nearby indexed airport alternatives, which makes backup departures and diversion logic part of real planning instead of a theoretical edge case.
Airport pages are most useful when they bridge into real city clocks. These city anchors are ranked by distance from FJR, then shown with their own timezone, local time, and time difference from the airport clock.
