Decision matrix for PED
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.
When the clock matters
PED uses Europe/Prague (CEST, UTC+02:00). Use this before overnight arrivals, cross-date departures, and same-day connections.
When surface access matters
Pardubice Airport is about 95 km from central Pardubice; build that transfer into arrival and check-in planning.
When alternates matter
PRG Prague is the closest retained alternate at 106 km, time difference +0h.
When source checks matter
airport-pardubice.cz 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.
How this airport compares nearby
These comparisons place PED inside the retained airport graph by country, timezone, elevation, and coordinate neighbors. They are deterministic dataset facts, not generated flight claims.
Country-rank position

Airport Details
Timezone
Ground Transport and Nearby Context
Because the airport sits well outside central Pardubice, surface transfer planning matters almost as much as flight timing, especially for late arrivals and early departures.
Prague 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.
Pardubice Airport has 5 nearby indexed airport alternatives, which makes backup departures and diversion logic part of real planning instead of a theoretical edge case.
Nearby city time anchors
Airport pages are most useful when they bridge into real city clocks. These city anchors are ranked by distance from PED, then shown with their own timezone, local time, and time difference from the airport clock.
