MHD sits in Iran (Islamic Republic of Iran), whose capital is Tehran. No specific civil-aviation authority label is attached in the current map, so this page avoids inventing one. Country context: Asia, Southern Asia.
Common country-language signals: Persian (Farsi). Currency context: IRR (﷼). MHD is listed with scheduled service in the airport source snapshot.
MHD is also associated in the airport facts snapshot with Shahid Hashemi Nejad Airport, Mashhad Shahid Hasheminejad International Airport. These labels help catch alternate airport names without creating separate duplicate airport pages.

Mashhad International Airport is a moderate-elevation field at 3,263 ft (995 m), positioned at 36.2348° N, 59.6429° E in the Northern mid-latitudes. The runway snapshot lists 2 runways and a longest runway of 12,877 ft / 3,925 m. The airport clock uses Asia/Tehran (IRST, UTC+03:30), so cross-date arrivals should be checked against this zone rather than the airline origin city.
Mashhad is the closest retained city-time anchor at 7.8 km. THR Tehran is the closest retained airport alternative at 752 km.
MHD is compared with THR Tehran at 752 km, IKA Tehran at 771 km, PYK Karaj at 794 km, IFN Isfahan at 809 km, TBZ Tabriz at 1205 km inside the retained Iran airport set, which is useful when backup airports share the same country context but differ by city, route network, and clock behavior.
MHD-THR Tehran: 752 km, about 1h 47m, +0h. MHD-IKA Tehran: 771 km, about 1h 49m, +0h. MHD-PYK Karaj: 794 km, about 1h 50m, +0h. These are distance and timezone references, not live flight availability claims.

OurAirports classifies MHD as a large airport with scheduled service; the airport name and codes identify it as an international gateway for Mashhad.
MHD (OIMM) is a moderate-elevation field at 3,263 ft (995 m) in the mid-latitudes, kept in the curated set for its route, timezone, and market-planning value.
MHD sits in a broader regional network with 3 nearby curated alternatives, so airline choice and connection strategy are part of the planning story here.
MHD's runway record lists 2 runways, with the longest runway at 12,877 ft / 3,925 m and source surfaces recorded as asphalt (2).
Iranian Airports Holding Company is the clearest operator or management signal we currently have on file for MHD.
These operational notes prefer the structured airport facts snapshot, then fall back to the accepted airport reference at mashhad.airport.ir, 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.
MHD uses Asia/Tehran (IRST, UTC+03:30). Use this before overnight arrivals, cross-date departures, and same-day connections.
Mashhad International Airport is about 7.8 km from central Mashhad; build that transfer into arrival and check-in planning.
THR Tehran is the closest retained alternate at 752 km, time difference +0h.
mashhad.airport.ir 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 MHD inside the retained airport graph by country, timezone, elevation, and coordinate neighbors. They are deterministic dataset facts, not generated flight claims.
MHD ranks #3 in the curated Iran airport set when large airports are listed before medium airports, then sorted by IATA code. The retained country set has 6 airports.
MHD shares Asia/Tehran with IFN Isfahan IR · IKA Tehran IR · PYK Karaj IR · TBZ Tabriz IR · THR Tehran IR. This helps separate same-clock airports by city, country, code, and geography.
MHD is 3,263 ft (995 m). Closest elevation peers in the retained airport set include IKA 3,305 ft (1,007 m) (42 ft delta) · CLO 3,162 ft (964 m) (101 ft delta) · ESB 3,125 ft (952 m) (138 ft delta) · NAV 3,100 ft (945 m) (163 ft delta) · ASR 3,463 ft (1,056 m) (200 ft delta).
MHD's nearest retained coordinate neighbors are THR 752 km +0h · IKA 771 km +0h · PYK 794 km +0h.

Central Mashhad is close enough that taxi, ride-hail, and rail or shuttle links are usually the fastest arrival options.
Mashhad is the nearest mapped city anchor in the current dataset, which makes it the cleanest companion page when travelers want to switch from airport timing into local city timing.
Mashhad International Airport has 3 nearby indexed airport alternatives, which makes backup departures and diversion logic part of real planning instead of a theoretical edge case.
Airport pages are most useful when they bridge into real city clocks. These city anchors are ranked by distance from MHD, then shown with their own timezone, local time, and time difference from the airport clock.

Mashhad International Airport does not have a long carrier list in the current source trail, so this page emphasizes the durable pieces travelers can safely use here: local time, field identifiers, nearby airports, and timezone differences.
The route timing references show the first cross-timezone planning burden after this airport: Tehran (THR), Tehran (IKA), Karaj (PYK). Treat them as distance and clock cues, then verify flight availability with the carrier.
