About Multan International Airport

Multan International Airport lies in the temperate mid-latitudes at 30.20° N, 71.42° E, on Asia/Karachi time (UTC+5).

Multan International Airport has 1 runway. The longest, 18/36, measures 12,353 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. It is lit for night operations.

Runway 18/36 is aligned roughly south/north, 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 south/north alignment, so a strong crosswind means a crosswind landing rather than a switch to another strip.
