Multan International Airport is a low-elevation field at 403 ft (123 m), positioned at 30.2032° N, 71.4191° E in the Northern subtropics. The runway snapshot lists 1 runway and a longest runway of 12,353 ft / 3,765 m. The airport clock uses Asia/Karachi (PKT, UTC+05:00), so cross-date arrivals should be checked against this zone rather than the airline origin city.
Multan is the closest retained city-time anchor at 5.7 km. LYP Faisalabad is the closest retained airport alternative at 198 km.
MUX is compared with LYP Faisalabad at 198 km, LHE Lahore at 320 km, ISB Attock at 395 km, PEW Peshawar at 422 km, KHI Karachi at 723 km inside the retained Pakistan airport set, which is useful when backup airports share the same country context but differ by city, route network, and clock behavior.
MUX-LYP Faisalabad: 198 km, about 1h 5m, +0h. MUX-LHE Lahore: 320 km, about 1h 14m, +0h. MUX-ISB Attock: 395 km, about 1h 20m, +0h. These are distance and timezone references, not live flight availability claims.

Pakistan Civil Aviation Authority is the clearest operator or management signal we currently have on file for MUX.
These operational notes prefer the structured airport facts snapshot, then fall back to the accepted airport reference at multaninternationalairport.com.pk, 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.
MUX uses Asia/Karachi (PKT, UTC+05:00). Use this before overnight arrivals, cross-date departures, and same-day connections.
Multan International Airport is about 5.7 km from central Multan; build that transfer into arrival and check-in planning.
LYP Faisalabad is the closest retained alternate at 198 km, time difference +0h.
multaninternationalairport.com.pk 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 MUX inside the retained airport graph by country, timezone, elevation, and coordinate neighbors. They are deterministic dataset facts, not generated flight claims.
MUX ranks #5 in the curated Pakistan airport set when large airports are listed before medium airports, then sorted by IATA code. The retained country set has 6 airports.
MUX shares Asia/Karachi with ISB Attock PK · KHI Karachi PK · LHE Lahore PK · LYP Faisalabad PK · PEW Peshawar PK. This helps separate same-clock airports by city, country, code, and geography.
MUX is 403 ft (123 m). Closest elevation peers in the retained airport set include WRO 404 ft (123 m) (1 ft delta) · RMO 399 ft (122 m) (4 ft delta) · FKB 408 ft (124 m) (5 ft delta) · KZN 411 ft (125 m) (8 ft delta) · ADB 412 ft (126 m) (9 ft delta).

Multan 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.
Multan 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 MUX, then shown with their own timezone, local time, and time difference from the airport clock.
