Airport contact
Gran Roque's only air link to the Los Roques archipelago national park, today served solely by state carrier Conviasa on the short domestic hop to/from Caracas (Simon Bolivar Intl, SVMI) - down from the multi-carrier service (AeroCaribe, Airway, Blue Star, SASCA) recorded in the 2000s, reflecting Venezuela's broader sanctions-era contraction in regional air service. LRV has no scheduled international flights, no fixed customs/immigration post, and unreliable local fuel supply, so aircraft typically fly return legs from Caracas without refueling on the island.

Instituto Nacional de Aeronáutica Civil (INAC)
Confirmed via ES Wikipedia infobox as Propietario (owner) of this small single-runway (1,300 m) island airstrip; air traffic was remotely controlled from Maiquetía until a mobile ATC tower was installed in 2023. No dedicated third-party ramp/ground-handling company is documented at this field, and BAER's own airport list excludes Los Roques, so apron/airfield administration is presumed to sit with INAC as owner/operator; not independently confirmed beyond the Wikipedia summary.

Chapi Air Travel
Self-handled, Chapi Air Travel. Venezuelan air-taxi operator running 7-15 seat aircraft (incl. Britten-Norman Islander) on the daily Maiquetía-Los Roques route with its own check-in counter at Maiquetía Terminal Nacional (puerta 1); ongoing service corroborated by roqueparaiso.com, laverdaddevargas.com and multiple TripAdvisor traveler threads. No third-party ground handler documented at this remote strip, so ramp/passenger turnaround at LRV is presumed self-handled by Chapi Air's own crew; not independently confirmed.
