Airport contact
Regional airport for Cumaná/Sucre State served solely by Conviasa's domestic Embraer 190 route to Caracas (Simón Bolívar Intl, CCS); despite an historical 'international airport' designation and built-in customs/immigration space, no scheduled international service currently operates, consistent with Venezuela's sanctions-era contraction of regional air links. Passenger totals are an unverified estimate, as INAC does not publish current airport-level traffic statistics.
