Gaziantep Oğuzeli International Airport is a moderate-elevation field at 2,315 ft (706 m), positioned at 36.9472° N, 37.4787° E in the Northern mid-latitudes. The runway snapshot lists 1 runway and a longest runway of 9,842 ft / 3,000 m. The airport clock uses Europe/Istanbul (TRT, UTC+03:00), so cross-date arrivals should be checked against this zone rather than the airline origin city.
Gaziantep is the closest retained city-time anchor at 15 km. ALP Aleppo is the closest retained airport alternative at 88 km.
GZT is compared with ADA Seyhan at 195 km, COV Tarsus at 214 km, ASR Kayseri at 267 km, NAV Nevşehir at 329 km, ESB Ankara at 526 km inside the retained Turkey airport set, which is useful when backup airports share the same country context but differ by city, route network, and clock behavior.

OurAirports classifies GZT as a large airport with scheduled service; the airport name and codes identify it as an international gateway for Gaziantep.
GZT (LTAJ) is a moderate-elevation field at 2,315 ft (706 m) in the mid-latitudes, kept in the curated set for its route, timezone, and market-planning value.
GZT sits in a broader regional network with 4 nearby curated alternatives, so airline choice and connection strategy are part of the planning story here.
GZT's runway record lists 1 runway, with the longest runway at 9,842 ft / 3,000 m and source surfaces recorded as PEM.
General Directorate of State Airports (Turkey) is the clearest operator or management signal we currently have on file for GZT.
These operational notes prefer the structured airport facts snapshot, then fall back to the accepted airport reference at Gaziantep Oğuzeli Airport, 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.
GZT uses Europe/Istanbul (TRT, UTC+03:00). Use this before overnight arrivals, cross-date departures, and same-day connections.
Gaziantep Oğuzeli International Airport is about 15 km from central Gaziantep; build that transfer into arrival and check-in planning.
ALP Aleppo is the closest retained alternate at 88 km, time difference +0h.
The accepted airport reference came from en.wikipedia.org; live schedules, gates, routes, terminals, and NOTAM-sensitive operations still need official airport or airline verification.
These comparisons place GZT inside the retained airport graph by country, timezone, elevation, and coordinate neighbors. They are deterministic dataset facts, not generated flight claims.
GZT ranks #6 in the curated Turkey airport set when large airports are listed before medium airports, then sorted by IATA code. The retained country set has 10 airports.
GZT shares Europe/Istanbul with ADA Seyhan TR · ADB Gaziemir TR · ASR Kayseri TR · COV Tarsus TR · ESB Ankara TR · ISL Istanbul(Bakırköy) TR. This helps separate same-clock airports by city, country, code, and geography.
GZT is 2,315 ft (706 m). Closest elevation peers in the retained airport set include NSI 2,278 ft (694 m) (37 ft delta) · YEG 2,373 ft (723 m) (58 ft delta) · GEG 2,376 ft (724 m) (61 ft delta) · ALA 2,234 ft (681 m) (81 ft delta) · LAS 2,181 ft (665 m) (134 ft delta).
GZT's nearest retained coordinate neighbors are ALP 88 km +0h · ADA 195 km +0h · COV 214 km +0h · ASR 267 km +0h.
