Airport contact
Serves Punto Fijo and the Paraguaná Peninsula with domestic flights on Conviasa, Avior Airlines, Venezolana and Rutaca; nominally retains international-airport status (briefly held the record for world's shortest scheduled international route, to Aruba, in 2018) but scheduled international service has been sharply curtailed by Venezuela's prolonged sanctions and airline-capacity crisis, so current international connectivity should be verified with the carrier before travel planning.

Ground handling
Unconfirmed · 2 providers
Ramp handling
Conviasa (Consorcio Venezolano de Industrias Aeronáuticas y Servicios Aéreos)
self-handled, Conviasa. Confirmed operating scheduled Caracas–LSP service (per both ES and EN Wikipedia airline/route listings). Conviasa's own corporate site (conviasa.aero, 'asistencia_tierra' section) states it provides ramp assistance and ground handling at Venezuela's principal national aerodromes for its own operations, up to wide-body aircraft. No separate third-party ground handling company is documented at this airport, so self-handling by the carrier is the working assumption.

Avior Airlines
self-handled, Avior Airlines. Confirmed as a current operator at Punto Fijo/Josefa Camejo (LSP) per EN Wikipedia's Avior destinations table (Las Piedras / Josefa Camejo International Airport listed), with a Caracas connection. Avior's wider network does include Barcelona and Maracaibo, but a direct LSP–Barcelona or LSP–Maracaibo route pair could not be independently re-confirmed (aeropuertos.net source unreachable at verification time) — treat those two specific routes as unconfirmed. No third-party ground handling company is documented at LSP; consistent with Venezuela's smaller domestic stations outside Maiquetía, where the operating carrier typically self-handles its own turnarounds.

Aircraft fuel
Available
Jet fuel (Jet A / A-1)Avgas (100LL / UL94)
PDVSA (Petróleos de Venezuela, S.A.)
PDVSA is Venezuela's sole state supplier and price-setter for aviation fuel (Jet A-1 and Avgas 100-130) nationwide, per government resolution (Gaceta Oficial, 12-Nov-2019) fixing PDVSA's pricing for aircraft fuel at national airports; multiple airport-reference sources list Jet A1 as available on Josefa Camejo's ramp. PDVSA also operates the adjacent Amuay and Cardón refineries on the same Paraguaná peninsula, a few kilometers from the airfield. The specific local into-plane fuelling operator at LSP (i.e. who physically trucks/dispenses fuel to aircraft) is not separately named in sources found — unconfirmed whether this is a dedicated PDVSA aviation unit or an airport-operated fuel farm.

Instituto Autónomo de Aeropuertos del Estado Falcón (IAEF)
IAEF is the state authority that administers Josefa Camejo airport, including its cargo/customs area; Aeropuerto Josefa Camejo (SIDUNEA customs code 5705) is registered as a subordinate air-customs office of SENIAT for freight clearance under the main Las Piedras/Guaranao customs office. Historically the field received roughly two weekly cargo flights from Miami and Europe carrying equipment/spare parts for the nearby Amuay-Cardón (CRP) refineries and goods for the Paraguaná free-trade zone. No separate named cargo-terminal operator or freight handler is documented — treated as airport-authority-run pending confirmation. Phone number could not be independently re-verified against a second source.
