Lviv International Airport is a low-elevation field at 1,071 ft (326 m), positioned at 49.8125° N, 23.9561° E in the Northern mid-latitudes. The runway snapshot lists 1 runway and a longest runway of 10,843 ft / 3,305 m. The airport clock uses Europe/Kyiv (EEST, UTC+03:00), so cross-date arrivals should be checked against this zone rather than the airline origin city.
Novyi Lviv is the closest retained city-time anchor at 5.4 km. KRK Balice is the closest retained airport alternative at 300 km.
LWO is compared with ODS Odesa at 624 km, OZH Zaporizhia at 858 km inside the retained Ukraine airport set, which is useful when backup airports share the same country context but differ by city, route network, and clock behavior.
LWO-KRK Balice: 300 km, about 1h 13m, -1h. LWO-WAW Warsaw: 335 km, about 1h 15m, -1h. LWO-KTW Katowice: 355 km, about 1h 17m, -1h. These are distance and timezone references, not live flight availability claims.

OurAirports classifies LWO as a large airport with scheduled service; the airport name and codes identify it as an international gateway for Lviv.
LWO (UKLL) is a low-elevation field at 1,071 ft (326 m) in the mid-latitudes, kept in the curated set for its route, timezone, and market-planning value.
LWO sits in a broader regional network with 3 nearby curated alternatives, so airline choice and connection strategy are part of the planning story here.
LWO's runway record lists 1 runway, with the longest runway at 10,843 ft / 3,305 m and source surfaces recorded as asphalt.
A specific operator or management record for LWO is not currently in our source set, so this page leans on regulator and country context rather than inventing one.
These operational notes prefer the structured airport facts snapshot, then fall back to the accepted airport reference at airport.lviv.ua, 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.
LWO uses Europe/Kyiv (EEST, UTC+03:00). Use this before overnight arrivals, cross-date departures, and same-day connections.
Lviv International Airport is about 5.6 km from central Lviv; build that transfer into arrival and check-in planning.
KRK Balice is the closest retained alternate at 300 km, time difference -1h.
airport.lviv.ua 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 LWO inside the retained airport graph by country, timezone, elevation, and coordinate neighbors. They are deterministic dataset facts, not generated flight claims.
LWO ranks #1 in the curated Ukraine airport set when large airports are listed before medium airports, then sorted by IATA code. The retained country set has 3 airports.
LWO shares Europe/Kyiv with ODS Odesa UA · OZH Zaporizhia UA. This helps separate same-clock airports by city, country, code, and geography.
LWO is 1,071 ft (326 m). Closest elevation peers in the retained airport set include HIJ 1,088 ft (332 m) (17 ft delta) · CFE 1,090 ft (332 m) (19 ft delta) · BZV 1,048 ft (319 m) (23 ft delta) · OUA 1,037 ft (316 m) (34 ft delta) · FIH 1,027 ft (313 m) (44 ft delta).
