Source-backed facts for TLS
This section separates stable airport identifiers from live operating data. Codes, coordinates, timezone, elevation, source identifiers, and accepted reference links are retained here; live arrivals, departures, gates, delays, NOTAMs, and airline schedule changes must still be checked with the airport or carrier.

Field and clock profile
Toulouse-Blagnac Airport is a low-elevation field at 499 ft (152 m), positioned at 43.6291° N, 1.3638° E in the Northern mid-latitudes. The runway snapshot lists 2 runways and a longest runway of 11,483 ft / 3,500 m. The airport clock uses Europe/Paris (CEST, UTC+02:00), so cross-date arrivals should be checked against this zone rather than the airline origin city.
City and airport alternatives
Blagnac is the closest retained city-time anchor at 2.3 km. MPL Montpellier/Méditerranée is the closest retained airport alternative at 209 km.
Country airport peers
TLS is compared with MPL Montpellier/Méditerranée at 209 km, BOD Bordeaux at 213 km, CFE Clermont-Ferrand at 279 km, MRS Marignane, Bouches-du-Rhône at 311 km, LYS Colombier-Saugnieu, Rhône at 376 km inside the retained France airport set, which is useful when backup airports share the same country context but differ by city, route network, and clock behavior.
Route geometry
TLS-MPL Montpellier/Méditerranée: 209 km, about 1h 6m, +0h. TLS-BOD Bordeaux: 213 km, about 1h 6m, +0h. TLS-GRO Girona: 223 km, about 1h 7m, +0h. TLS-BCN Barcelona: 266 km, about 1h 10m, +0h. These are distance and timezone references, not live flight availability claims.

OurAirports classifies TLS as a large airport with scheduled service, which gives it stronger planning value than a code-only lookup.
TLS (LFBO) is one of the curated airport pages with a real traffic signal attached: 9,264,611 passengers, operating from a low-elevation field at 499 ft (152 m).
TLS sits in a broader regional network with 5 nearby curated alternatives, so airline choice and connection strategy are part of the planning story here.
TLS's runway record lists 2 runways, with the longest runway at 11,483 ft / 3,500 m and source surfaces recorded as asphalt (2).
Q115580079 is the clearest operator or management signal we currently have on file for TLS.
- In 2017, the airport served 9,264,611 passengers and in 2024 7.8 million passengers.
These operational notes prefer the structured airport facts snapshot, then fall back to the accepted airport reference at toulouse.aeroport.fr, then blend that with local timezone, route, and city-access data already on this page.
Decision matrix for TLS
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
TLS uses Europe/Paris (CEST, UTC+02:00). Use this before overnight arrivals, cross-date departures, and same-day connections.
When surface access matters
Toulouse-Blagnac Airport is about 7.0 km from central Toulouse/Blagnac; build that transfer into arrival and check-in planning.
When alternates matter
MPL Montpellier/Méditerranée is the closest retained alternate at 209 km, time difference +0h.
When source checks matter
toulouse.aeroport.fr 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 TLS inside the retained airport graph by country, timezone, elevation, and coordinate neighbors. They are deterministic dataset facts, not generated flight claims.
Country-rank position
TLS ranks #15 in the curated France airport set when large airports are listed before medium airports, then sorted by IATA code. The retained country set has 15 airports.
Same-zone airport cohort
TLS shares Europe/Paris with BES Brest FR · BOD Bordeaux FR · BSL Bâle / Mulhouse FR · BVA Beauvais FR · CDG Paris (Roissy-en-France, Val-d'Oise) FR · CFE Clermont-Ferrand FR. This helps separate same-clock airports by city, country, code, and geography.
Elevation-neighbor cohort
TLS is 499 ft (152 m). Closest elevation peers in the retained airport set include SDF 501 ft (153 m) (2 ft delta) · ORK 502 ft (153 m) (3 ft delta) · BUD 495 ft (151 m) (4 ft delta) · SXB 505 ft (154 m) (6 ft delta) · GOT 506 ft (154 m) (7 ft delta).
Coordinate-neighbor check
TLS's nearest retained coordinate neighbors are MPL 209 km +0h · BOD 213 km +0h · GRO 223 km +0h · BCN 266 km +0h.

Airport Details
Timezone
Ground Transport and Nearby Context
Central Toulouse/Blagnac is close enough that taxi, ride-hail, and rail or shuttle links are usually the fastest arrival options.
Toulouse 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.
Toulouse-Blagnac 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 TLS, then shown with their own timezone, local time, and time difference from the airport clock.

Airlines and Network Role
Toulouse-Blagnac Airport does not have a long carrier list in the current source trail, so this page emphasizes the durable pieces travelers can safely use here: local time, field identifiers, nearby airports, and timezone differences.
The route timing references show the first cross-timezone planning burden after this airport: Montpellier/Méditerranée (MPL), Bordeaux (BOD), Girona (GRO). Treat them as distance and clock cues, then verify flight availability with the carrier.
