Eduardo Gomes International Airport is a low-elevation field at 264 ft (80 m), positioned at 3.0386° S, 60.0497° W in the Equatorial deep tropics. The runway snapshot lists 1 runway and a longest runway of 8,858 ft / 2,700 m. The airport clock uses America/Manaus (AMT, UTC-04:00), so cross-date arrivals should be checked against this zone rather than the airline origin city.
Manaus is the closest retained city-time anchor at 7.6 km. BEL Belém is the closest retained airport alternative at 1299 km.
MAO is compared with BEL Belém at 1299 km, GYN Goiânia at 1920 km, BSB Brasília at 1949 km, FOR Fortaleza at 2390 km, CNF Belo Horizonte at 2541 km inside the retained Brazil airport set, which is useful when backup airports share the same country context but differ by city, route network, and clock behavior.
MAO-BEL Belém: 1299 km, about 2h 29m, +1h. MAO-CCS Maiquetía: 1700 km, about 2h 59m, +0h. MAO-LPB La Paz / El Alto: 1742 km, about 3h 2m, +0h. These are distance and timezone references, not live flight availability claims.
OurAirports ident SBEG backs the stable code, coordinate, elevation, and timezone record. airport-manaus.com.br is attached as the official airport website. en.wikipedia.org is used only as supporting reference context. Snapshot date: 2026-05-25.

OurAirports classifies MAO as a large airport with scheduled service; the airport name and codes identify it as an international gateway for Manaus.
MAO (SBEG) is a low-elevation field at 264 ft (80 m) in the deep tropics, kept in the curated set for its route, timezone, and market-planning value.
MAO sits in a broader regional network with 3 nearby curated alternatives, so airline choice and connection strategy are part of the planning story here.
MAO's runway record lists 1 runway, with the longest runway at 8,858 ft / 2,700 m and source surfaces recorded as asph 71/f/c/x/t.
Infraero is the clearest operator or management signal we currently have on file for MAO.
These operational notes prefer the structured airport facts snapshot, then fall back to the accepted airport reference at airport-manaus.com.br, 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.
MAO uses America/Manaus (AMT, UTC-04:00). Use this before overnight arrivals, cross-date departures, and same-day connections.
Eduardo Gomes International Airport is about 7.6 km from central Manaus; build that transfer into arrival and check-in planning.
BEL Belém is the closest retained alternate at 1299 km, time difference +1h.
airport-manaus.com.br 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 MAO inside the retained airport graph by country, timezone, elevation, and coordinate neighbors. They are deterministic dataset facts, not generated flight claims.
MAO ranks #10 in the curated Brazil airport set when large airports are listed before medium airports, then sorted by IATA code. The retained country set has 15 airports.
MAO has no other retained airport in the same IANA zone cohort, making America/Manaus a more distinctive signal for this page.
MAO is 264 ft (80 m). Closest elevation peers in the retained airport set include BFS 268 ft (82 m) (4 ft delta) · MAN 257 ft (78 m) (7 ft delta) · TIQ 271 ft (83 m) (7 ft delta) · GOJ 256 ft (78 m) (8 ft delta) · RBA 276 ft (84 m) (12 ft delta).
MAO's nearest retained coordinate neighbors are BEL 1299 km +1h · CCS 1700 km +0h · LPB 1742 km +0h.
