Served by SATENA's subsidized regional network (Bogota/Villavicencio) and by charter operators such as SARPA; the strip lies within Meta's Amazon-Llanos transition zone near Sierra de la Macarena National Park, a historically remote, conflict-affected area where SATENA's route is a state-subsidized lifeline connection.

Ground handling Unconfirmed · 2 providers
SATENA (Servicio Aéreo a Territorios Nacionales)
Self-handled, SATENA. Colombia's state regional carrier operates scheduled service to La Macarena (LMC/SKNA) from Bogotá and Villavicencio, confirmed via satena.com route promotion and independently corroborated on Wikipedia's SKNA entry. Aerocivil's AIP for SKNA lists no independent ground-handling agent at the field, so turnarounds for SATENA's own aircraft are necessarily performed by SATENA's own station/ground staff; no third-party handler is documented.

Clic Air
Self-handled, Clic Air. Regional carrier confirmed via clicair.co to operate flights to La Macarena for Caño Cristales tourism (route listed under the Orinoquía region on the carrier's own destinations page). Aerocivil's AIP for SKNA documents no independent ground-handling or security agent at the field, so Clic Air's own crew/station staff handle its aircraft turnarounds; the airline separately markets ground transfers into town, but no distinct ground-transport operator is named.
