Maastricht Aachen Airport is a low-elevation field at 375 ft (114 m), positioned at 50.9111° N, 5.7694° E in the Northern high mid-latitudes. The runway snapshot lists 1 runway and a longest runway of 9,022 ft / 2,750 m. The airport clock uses Europe/Amsterdam (CEST, UTC+02:00), so cross-date arrivals should be checked against this zone rather than the airline origin city.
Geleen is the closest retained city-time anchor at 8.2 km. EIN Eindhoven is the closest retained airport alternative at 66 km.
MST is compared with EIN Eindhoven at 66 km, RTM Rotterdam at 148 km, AMS Amsterdam at 170 km, GRQ Groningen at 252 km inside the retained The Netherlands airport set, which is useful when backup airports share the same country context but differ by city, route network, and clock behavior.
MST-EIN Eindhoven: 66 km, about 55m, +0h. MST-NRN Weeze: 81 km, about 56m, +0h. MST-DUS Düsseldorf: 81 km, about 56m, +0h. MST-BRU Zaventem: 90 km, about 57m, +0h. These are distance and timezone references, not live flight availability claims.

OurAirports classifies MST as a large airport with scheduled service, which gives it stronger planning value than a code-only lookup.
MST (EHBK) is a low-elevation field at 375 ft (114 m) in the high mid-latitudes, kept in the curated set for its route, timezone, and market-planning value.
MST sits in a broader regional network with 5 nearby curated alternatives, so airline choice and connection strategy are part of the planning story here.
MST's runway record lists 1 runway, with the longest runway at 9,022 ft / 2,750 m and source surfaces recorded as asphalt.
Civil aviation oversight for MST runs through Inspectie Leefomgeving en Transport (ILT); a more specific operator record is not currently in our source set.
These operational notes prefer the structured airport facts snapshot, then fall back to the accepted airport reference at maa.nl, 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.
MST uses Europe/Amsterdam (CEST, UTC+02:00). Use this before overnight arrivals, cross-date departures, and same-day connections.
Maastricht Aachen Airport is about 9.0 km from central Maastricht; build that transfer into arrival and check-in planning.
EIN Eindhoven is the closest retained alternate at 66 km, time difference +0h.
maa.nl 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 MST inside the retained airport graph by country, timezone, elevation, and coordinate neighbors. They are deterministic dataset facts, not generated flight claims.
MST ranks #4 in the curated The Netherlands airport set when large airports are listed before medium airports, then sorted by IATA code. The retained country set has 5 airports.
MST shares Europe/Amsterdam with AMS Amsterdam NL · EIN Eindhoven NL · GRQ Groningen NL · RTM Rotterdam NL. This helps separate same-clock airports by city, country, code, and geography.
MST is 375 ft (114 m). Closest elevation peers in the retained airport set include LIS 374 ft (114 m) (1 ft delta) · YOW 374 ft (114 m) (1 ft delta) · OZH 373 ft (114 m) (2 ft delta) · ZIA 377 ft (115 m) (2 ft delta) · OVB 365 ft (111 m) (10 ft delta).
MST's nearest retained coordinate neighbors are EIN 66 km +0h · NRN 81 km +0h · DUS 81 km +0h · BRU 90 km +0h.

Central Maastricht is close enough that taxi, ride-hail, and rail or shuttle links are usually the fastest arrival options.
Maastricht 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.
Maastricht Aachen Airport has 5 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 MST, then shown with their own timezone, local time, and time difference from the airport clock.
