Regional highland gateway served by LATAM Perú and Sky Airline with domestic flights to Lima and Cusco; the runway sits on a mesa above the Totorilla River at 2,718 m (8,917 ft), so density altitude and daylight-only VFR operation are operationally significant. Traffic has grown sharply under AAP's concession (since 2011) and after Ayacucho hosted the 2024 Bolivarian Games, though the airport remains domestic-only despite aspirations toward international status pending further infrastructure upgrades.

Talma Servicios Aeroportuarios S.A.
Ramp/ground handler at Coronel FAP Alfredo Mendívil Duarte Airport for scheduled carriers LATAM Perú and Sky Airline Perú, the airport's only two commercial operators; confirmed by Talma's own recruitment listing for a permanent "Auxiliar de Rampa (Ayacucho)" ramp-agent role on its careers portal (talma.pandape.computrabajo.com), showing an active on-site ramp operation rather than a group-level claim. fbo-finder.com also lists a "Talma Ayacucho" private-jet/FBO terminal at the field, suggesting Talma additionally handles non-scheduled business aviation there. Company contact (•••, •••) confirmed on talma.com.pe/contacto under "Servicios a la Carga y Asistencia en Tierra."

Herco Combustibles S.A.
Fuel-plant operator for Jet A-1 supply at Ayacucho airport, awarded via international tender by concessionaire Aeropuertos Andinos del Perú (reported 19 Mar 2021 by Agencia Andina) covering five southern-Peru airports named explicitly in the award: Arequipa, Ayacucho, Juliaca, Puerto Maldonado and Tacna (also reported by Gestión, El Comercio/Correo, ProActivo, Semana Económica, AmCham Perú). ~US$1.7M invested in plant upgrades; service reported operational from July 2021. Phone corrected to Herco's current published line (herco.pe); the draft's "•••" could not be verified and appears wrong. Into-plane agent not separately identified — presumed same party at this single-supplier field; unconfirmed.

Aeropuertos Andinos del Perú (AAP)
AAP has held the Ayacucho concession since 2011 (year confirmed via Wikipedia; the draft's specific "5 Jan 2011" date could not be independently verified). AAP's official service listing for the terminal names airport security alongside medical attention, rescue/fire-fighting and sanitary services, delivered through a mix of Policía Nacional presence and a private security contractor (per Wikipedia's citation of AAP's own archived service page) rather than AAP staff alone. Note: AAP's current live aap.com.pe/sedes/ayacucho page (checked 2026-08-14) is a commercial/shops-focused redesign that no longer itemizes this operational list, and its footer contact details differ from the draft — corrected here to ••• / •••, as published on that page. Subcontracted screening/guarding firm, if any, not separately named — unconfirmed.
