OurAirports classifies GOA as a large airport with scheduled service, which gives it stronger planning value than a code-only lookup.
GOA (LIMJ) is a near sea-level field at 13 ft (4 m) in the mid-latitudes, kept in the curated set for its route, timezone, and market-planning value.
GOA sits in a broader regional network with 5 nearby curated alternatives, so airline choice and connection strategy are part of the planning story here.
GOA's runway record lists 1 runway, with the longest runway at 9,564 ft / 2,915 m and source surfaces recorded as asphalt.
Civil aviation oversight for GOA runs through Ente Nazionale per l'Aviazione Civile (ENAC); 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 aeroportodigenova.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.
GOA uses Europe/Rome (CEST, UTC+02:00). Use this before overnight arrivals, cross-date departures, and same-day connections.
Genoa Cristoforo Colombo Airport is about 8.3 km from central Genova (GE); build that transfer into arrival and check-in planning.
LIN Segrate (MI) is the closest retained alternate at 120 km, time difference +0h.
aeroportodigenova.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 GOA inside the retained airport graph by country, timezone, elevation, and coordinate neighbors. They are deterministic dataset facts, not generated flight claims.
GOA ranks #7 in the curated Italy airport set when large airports are listed before medium airports, then sorted by IATA code. The retained country set has 12 airports.
GOA shares Europe/Rome with BGY Orio al Serio (BG) IT · BLQ Bologna IT · BRI Bari IT · CIA Rome IT · FCO Rome IT · FLR Firenze (FI) IT. This helps separate same-clock airports by city, country, code, and geography.
GOA is 13 ft (4 m). Closest elevation peers in the retained airport set include BNE 13 ft (4 m) (0 ft delta) · DOH 13 ft (4 m) (0 ft delta) · FCO 13 ft (4 m) (0 ft delta) · HBA 13 ft (4 m) (0 ft delta) · HNL 13 ft (4 m) (0 ft delta).
