Field and clock profile
Tashkent International Airport is a low-elevation field at 1,417 ft (432 m), positioned at 41.2579° N, 69.2812° E in the Northern mid-latitudes. The runway snapshot lists 2 runways and a longest runway of 13,123 ft / 4,000 m.

City and airport alternatives
Tashkent is the closest retained city-time anchor at 5.5 km. ALA Almaty is the closest retained airport alternative at 679 km.
Country airport peers
TAS has no same-country peer airports retained in the current airport set, so the useful comparison points are its code, coordinates, timezone, and route references.

Decision matrix for TAS
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
TAS uses Asia/Tashkent (UZT, UTC+05:00). Use this before overnight arrivals, cross-date departures, and same-day connections.
When surface access matters
Tashkent International Airport is about 5.5 km from central Tashkent; build that transfer into arrival and check-in planning.
When alternates matter
ALA Almaty is the closest retained alternate at 679 km, time difference +0h.
When source checks matter
uzairways.online 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 TAS inside the retained airport graph by country, timezone, elevation, and coordinate neighbors. They are deterministic dataset facts, not generated flight claims.
Country-rank position
TAS ranks #1 in the curated Uzbekistan airport set when large airports are listed before medium airports, then sorted by IATA code. The retained country set has 1 airport.

Ground Transport and Nearby Context
Central Tashkent is close enough that taxi, ride-hail, and rail or shuttle links are usually the fastest arrival options.
Tashkent 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.
Tashkent 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.
Nearby city time anchors
Airport pages are most useful when they bridge into real city clocks. These city anchors are ranked by distance from TAS, then shown with their own timezone, local time, and time difference from the airport clock.
