About Bari Karol Wojtyła International Airport

Overview

Bari Karol Wojtyła International Airport serves as a key aviation hub in southeastern Italy, located in the Puglia region. Situated at an elevation of 193 feet above mean sea level near the city of Bari, this large international airport provides critical air transportation infrastructure for the region.

Flying Conditions

Being positioned along the Adriatic coast, the airport experiences Mediterranean climate conditions with potential wind variations. The two-runway configuration (07/25 at 9,843 feet and 12/30 at 512 feet) offers flexibility for different wind conditions and traffic management.

Notable Features

The airport's primary runway 07/25 is a substantial 9,843-foot asphalt surface, capable of handling large commercial and international aircraft. Its geographic coordinates at 41.138901, 16.760599 position it in a relatively flat coastal area with minimal terrain complications for approach and departure procedures.

Approach Considerations

Pilots should be prepared for potential crosswind scenarios given the airport's coastal location and dual runway configuration. The substantial length of runway 07/25 provides significant operational flexibility for most aircraft types, while the shorter 12/30 runway can serve as an alternative or supplementary landing surface.
