Zaporizhzhia International Airport is a low-elevation field at 373 ft (114 m), positioned at 47.8670° N, 35.3147° E in the Northern mid-latitudes. The runway snapshot lists 1 runway and a longest runway of 8,210 ft / 2,502 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.
Vilnyansk is the closest retained city-time anchor at 13 km. ROV Rostov-on-Don is the closest retained airport alternative at 348 km.
OZH is compared with ODS Odesa at 386 km, LWO Lviv 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.
OZH-ROV Rostov-on-Don: 348 km, about 1h 16m, +0h. OZH-ODS Odesa: 386 km, about 1h 19m, +0h. OZH-RMO Chişinău: 492 km, about 1h 27m, +0h. These are distance and timezone references, not live flight availability claims.

OurAirports classifies OZH as a large airport; the airport name and codes identify it as an international gateway for Zaporizhia.
OZH (UKDE) is one of the curated airport pages with a real traffic signal attached: 400 passengers, operating from a low-elevation field at 373 ft (114 m).
OZH sits in a broader regional network with 3 nearby curated alternatives, so airline choice and connection strategy are part of the planning story here.
OZH's runway record lists 1 runway, with the longest runway at 8,210 ft / 2,502 m and source surfaces recorded as concrete.
A specific operator or management record for OZH 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 ozh.aero, 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.
OZH uses Europe/Kyiv (EEST, UTC+03:00). Use this before overnight arrivals, cross-date departures, and same-day connections.
Zaporizhzhia International Airport is about 15 km from central Zaporizhia; build that transfer into arrival and check-in planning.
ROV Rostov-on-Don is the closest retained alternate at 348 km, time difference +0h.
ozh.aero 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 OZH inside the retained airport graph by country, timezone, elevation, and coordinate neighbors. They are deterministic dataset facts, not generated flight claims.
OZH ranks #3 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.
OZH shares Europe/Kyiv with LWO Lviv UA · ODS Odesa UA. This helps separate same-clock airports by city, country, code, and geography.
OZH is 373 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) · MST 375 ft (114 m) (2 ft delta) · ZIA 377 ft (115 m) (4 ft delta) · OVB 365 ft (111 m) (8 ft delta).
