About Jamnagar Airport

Overview

Jamnagar Airport is a medium-sized airport located in Gujarat, India, serving the city of Jamnagar at an elevation of 69 feet above mean sea level. Positioned at coordinates 22.465500, 70.012604, the airport provides critical aviation infrastructure for the western region of India.

Flying Conditions

The airport's coastal location near the Arabian Sea suggests potential for variable wind conditions and maritime weather influences. With two substantial runways (8242ft concrete and 8236ft asphalt), the airport offers robust operational flexibility across different meteorological scenarios.

Notable Features

Jamnagar Airport features two parallel runways: 06/24 and 12/30, both over 8,200 feet long, which enables handling of various aircraft types and provides operational redundancy. The moderate elevation and flat regional terrain suggest generally stable approach and departure conditions for pilots.

Approach Considerations

Runway orientation suggests potential crosswind scenarios, with 06/24 and 12/30 alignments providing options for landing based on prevailing wind conditions. Pilots should anticipate potential maritime weather effects and prepare for potential wind shifts characteristic of coastal airport environments.
