Phnom Penh International Airport is a near sea-level field at 40 ft (12 m), positioned at 11.5472° N, 104.8447° E in the Northern tropics. The runway snapshot lists 1 runway and a longest runway of 9,843 ft / 3,000 m. The airport clock uses Asia/Phnom_Penh (ICT, UTC+07:00), so cross-date arrivals should be checked against this zone rather than the airline origin city.
Boeng Kak Pir is the closest retained city-time anchor at 5.7 km. KTI Phnom Penh (Boeng Khyang) is the closest retained airport alternative at 22 km.
PNH is compared with KTI Phnom Penh (Boeng Khyang) at 22 km inside the retained Cambodia airport set, which is useful when backup airports share the same country context but differ by city, route network, and clock behavior.
PNH-VCA Can Tho: 188 km, about 1h 4m, +0h. PNH-SGN Ho Chi Minh City: 213 km, about 1h 6m, +0h. PNH-LTH Ho Chi Minh City (Long Thanh): 255 km, about 1h 9m, +0h. These are distance and timezone references, not live flight availability claims.

OurAirports classifies PNH as a large airport; the airport name and codes identify it as an international gateway for Phnom Penh (Pou Senchey).
PNH (VDPP) is a near sea-level field at 40 ft (12 m) in the tropics, kept in the curated set for its route, timezone, and market-planning value.
PNH sits in a broader regional network with 4 nearby curated alternatives, so airline choice and connection strategy are part of the planning story here.
PNH's runway record lists 1 runway, with the longest runway at 9,843 ft / 3,000 m and source surfaces recorded as asphalt.
A specific operator or management record for PNH 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 cambodia-airports.com, 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.
PNH uses Asia/Phnom_Penh (ICT, UTC+07:00). Use this before overnight arrivals, cross-date departures, and same-day connections.
Phnom Penh International Airport is about 8.0 km from central Phnom Penh (Pou Senchey); build that transfer into arrival and check-in planning.
KTI Phnom Penh (Boeng Khyang) is the closest retained alternate at 22 km, time difference +0h.
cambodia-airports.com 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 PNH inside the retained airport graph by country, timezone, elevation, and coordinate neighbors. They are deterministic dataset facts, not generated flight claims.
PNH ranks #2 in the curated Cambodia airport set when large airports are listed before medium airports, then sorted by IATA code. The retained country set has 2 airports.
PNH shares Asia/Phnom_Penh with KTI Phnom Penh (Boeng Khyang) KH. This helps separate same-clock airports by city, country, code, and geography.
PNH is 40 ft (12 m). Closest elevation peers in the retained airport set include BOM 39 ft (12 m) (1 ft delta) · HAN 39 ft (12 m) (1 ft delta) · WLG 41 ft (12 m) (1 ft delta) · MID 38 ft (12 m) (2 ft delta) · MJI 36 ft (11 m) (4 ft delta).
PNH's nearest retained coordinate neighbors are KTI 22 km +0h · VCA 188 km +0h · SGN 213 km +0h · LTH 255 km +0h.

Central Phnom Penh (Pou Senchey) is close enough that taxi, ride-hail, and rail or shuttle links are usually the fastest arrival options.
Phnom Penh 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.
Phnom Penh International Airport has 4 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 PNH, then shown with their own timezone, local time, and time difference from the airport clock.
