Decision matrix for LBG
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.
When the clock matters
LBG uses Europe/Paris (CEST, UTC+02:00). Use this before overnight arrivals, cross-date departures, and same-day connections.
When surface access matters
Paris-Le Bourget International Airport is about 14 km from central Paris; build that transfer into arrival and check-in planning.
When alternates matter
CDG Paris (Roissy-en-France, Val-d'Oise) is the closest retained alternate at 10 km, time difference +0h.
When source checks matter
aeroportsdeparis.fr 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.
How this airport compares nearby
These comparisons place LBG inside the retained airport graph by country, timezone, elevation, and coordinate neighbors. They are deterministic dataset facts, not generated flight claims.
Country-rank position
LBG ranks #7 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.
Same-zone airport cohort
LBG shares Europe/Paris with BES Brest FR · BOD Bordeaux FR · BSL Bâle / Mulhouse FR · BVA Beauvais FR · CDG Paris (Roissy-en-France, Val-d'Oise) FR · CFE Clermont-Ferrand FR. This helps separate same-clock airports by city, country, code, and geography.
Elevation-neighbor cohort
LBG is 218 ft (66 m). Closest elevation peers in the retained airport set include CWL 220 ft (67 m) (2 ft delta) · LRM 213 ft (65 m) (5 ft delta) · ROV 213 ft (65 m) (5 ft delta) · HAV 210 ft (64 m) (8 ft delta) · PLZ 226 ft (69 m) (8 ft delta).
Coordinate-neighbor check
LBG's nearest retained coordinate neighbors are CDG 10 km +0h · ORY 26 km +0h · BVA 60 km +0h · LIL 185 km +0h.
