Zvartnots International Airport serves as the primary international gateway for Armenia, located in Yerevan at an elevation of 2,838 feet above mean sea level. The airport is strategically positioned to handle large aircraft operations, with a substantial runway measuring 12,631 feet in length, capable of supporting major international and cargo flights.

Flying Conditions

Situated at a significant elevation of 2,838 ft MSL, pilots should anticipate potential performance considerations related to altitude and density altitude variations. The airport's geographical location in Armenia suggests potential for variable weather conditions, with potential impacts on aircraft performance and approach dynamics.

Notable Features

The airport features a single runway (08/26) constructed with asphalt pavement, oriented in an east-west configuration. Its substantial runway length of 12,631 feet provides extensive operational flexibility for a wide range of aircraft types, including large international and long-haul aircraft.

Approach Considerations

Given the runway's 08/26 orientation, pilots should be prepared for approaches aligned with the east-west heading. The significant runway length of 12,631 feet offers considerable margin for landing and takeoff performance, which can be particularly beneficial when dealing with the airport's elevated terrain and potential atmospheric conditions.
