Airport contact
Not publicly listediadal.lara.gob.ve
Central-western Venezuela's principal regional/international gateway, serving Conviasa, Avior, Rutaca, Venezolana and Air Century on domestic/Caribbean routes, with Copa Airlines' Panama service (suspended July 2024 amid the political crisis) reported resumed 4 May 2026. Treat status as fluid: Venezuela's sanctions environment, fuel shortages and airline instability since 2017 mean schedules, fuel availability and passenger volumes can change with little notice, and INAC does not publish current detailed traffic statistics, so the passenger figure above is an approximate estimate, not an official count.

Aircraft fuel
Unconfirmed
Petróleos de Venezuela S.A. (PDVSA)
PDVSA is Venezuela's state oil company and the country's legal monopoly supplier of Jet A-1 to domestic airports nationally. No BRM-specific into-plane agent, fuel-farm operator, or supply-contract detail could be confirmed in public sources searched (airport site, BAER, IASABEL, aviacionaldia.com archive all unreachable or silent on this point) — flagged unconfirmed at the airport-specific level despite the national monopoly being well established.

Aviation security
Unconfirmed
Instituto Autónomo de Servicio de Aeropuertos Bolivarianos del Estado Lara (IASABEL)
Airport-internal security personnel plus Policía Nacional Bolivariana officers at the perimeter gate reportedly provide screening/guarding, per a 2016 aviacionaldia.com investigative report describing chronic understaffing (5 of an ideal 15 staff per shift) and noting the adjacent Air Force base does not provide perimeter security. No dedicated third-party aviation-security contractor documented; function attributed to the airport operator (IASABEL/BAER). Source could not be (search tooling blocked) and is a decade old, so status is marked unconfirmed rather than available.
