About Isfahan Shahid Beheshti International Airport

Isfahan Shahid Beheshti International Airport lies in the temperate mid-latitudes at 32.76° N, 51.88° E, on Asia/Tehran time (UTC+3:30).

Isfahan Shahid Beheshti International Airport has 2 runways. The longest, 07L/25R, measures 14,425 ft by 148 ft, which puts the field in the full-length intercontinental category: a fully loaded Boeing 777 or Airbus A350 can depart for the far side of the world. The surface is asphalt. Both are lit for night operations.

Runway 07L/25R is aligned roughly east/west, which is the clearest hint you get about the prevailing wind here: runways are built to face the wind that blows most often, because aircraft take off and land into it. Every runway here shares that east/west alignment, so a strong crosswind means a crosswind landing rather than a switch to another strip.

The field sits at 5,059 ft, high enough that density altitude matters. Takeoff runs stretch on warm afternoons and climb performance is weaker than the same aircraft would manage at sea level.
