Zaragoza Airport is a low-elevation field at 863 ft (263 m), positioned at 41.6662° N, 1.0415° W in the Northern mid-latitudes. The runway snapshot lists 2 runways and a longest runway of 12,198 ft / 3,718 m. The airport clock uses Europe/Madrid (CEST, UTC+02:00), so cross-date arrivals should be checked against this zone rather than the airline origin city.

ZAZ is compared with REU Reus at 193 km, VLC Valencia at 247 km, MAD Madrid at 249 km, BCN Barcelona at 263 km, GRO Girona at 316 km inside the retained Spain airport set, which is useful when backup airports share the same country context but differ by city, route network, and clock behavior.
ZAZ-REU Reus: 193 km, about 1h 5m, +0h. ZAZ-VLC Valencia: 247 km, about 1h 9m, +0h. ZAZ-MAD Madrid: 249 km, about 1h 9m, +0h. ZAZ-BCN Barcelona: 263 km, about 1h 10m, +0h. These are distance and timezone references, not live flight availability claims.

OurAirports classifies ZAZ as a large airport with scheduled service, which gives it stronger planning value than a code-only lookup.
ZAZ (LEZG) is a low-elevation field at 863 ft (263 m) in the mid-latitudes, kept in the curated set for its route, timezone, and market-planning value.
ZAZ sits in a broader regional network with 5 nearby curated alternatives, so airline choice and connection strategy are part of the planning story here.
ZAZ's runway record lists 2 runways, with the longest runway at 12,198 ft / 3,718 m and source surfaces recorded as asphalt (2).
ENAIRE is the clearest operator or management signal we currently have on file for ZAZ.
These operational notes prefer the structured airport facts snapshot, then fall back to the accepted airport reference at aena.es, 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.
ZAZ uses Europe/Madrid (CEST, UTC+02:00). Use this before overnight arrivals, cross-date departures, and same-day connections.
Zaragoza Airport is about 14 km from central Zaragoza; build that transfer into arrival and check-in planning.
REU Reus is the closest retained alternate at 193 km, time difference +0h.
aena.es 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 ZAZ inside the retained airport graph by country, timezone, elevation, and coordinate neighbors. They are deterministic dataset facts, not generated flight claims.
ZAZ ranks #12 in the curated Spain airport set when large airports are listed before medium airports, then sorted by IATA code. The retained country set has 12 airports.
ZAZ shares Europe/Madrid with AGP Málaga ES · ALC Alicante ES · BCN Barcelona ES · GRO Girona ES · MAD Madrid ES · PMI Palma de Mallorca ES. This helps separate same-clock airports by city, country, code, and geography.
ZAZ is 863 ft (263 m). Closest elevation peers in the retained airport set include AAN 869 ft (265 m) (6 ft delta) · BSL 885 ft (270 m) (22 ft delta) · MSP 841 ft (256 m) (22 ft delta) · CVG 896 ft (273 m) (33 ft delta) · LYS 821 ft (250 m) (42 ft delta).
ZAZ's nearest retained coordinate neighbors are REU 193 km +0h · VLC 247 km +0h · MAD 249 km +0h · BCN 263 km +0h.
