Operating hoursDaylight operations only; no published 24h tower service. No formal curfew published; PPR not generally required for scheduled domestic carriers, but general aviation/charter operators should confirm slot/PPR status directly with SAADEMO given intermittent service levels.
TerminalsSeparate domestic and international terminal buildings; dedicated customs facility of approximately 5,074 sq m. International terminal category was formally reinstated on 14 March 2014, but as of 2026 scheduled international service is minimal to nonexistent — current published routings are almost entirely domestic (Caracas, Maracaibo, Porlamar), with any international connections (e.g. Rutaca/Conviasa links toward the Dominican Republic) operating irregularly or seasonally.

Airport contact
A regional eastern-Venezuela hub historically served by Conviasa, Estelar, LASER Airlines and Rutaca on domestic trunk routes; it is also the country's leading regional air-cargo airport (~65% of eastern-region air cargo, 5th nationally), reflecting Monagas state's oil-industry logistics. Current status should be treated cautiously: no reliable, recent (2023-2026) total annual passenger figures are publicly published by INAC/BAER — the only sourced statistic reference found (Wikipedia infobox) is dated 2007 and no count was recorded — and years of US sanctions, hyperinflation, and fleet/parts shortages have sharply reduced Venezuelan carrier capacity and international connectivity industry-wide, so MUN's nominal 'international airport' designation should not be assumed to reflect regular international scheduled service today.

Bolivariana de Aeropuertos (BAER)
State airport-operator entity BAER has administered Jose Tadeo Monagas Intl since 26 Jan 2010, taking over from the regional Servicio Autonomo de Aeropuertos del Estado Monagas (SAADEMO) - confirmed via the airport's Spanish-language Wikipedia administrative history. No separate FBO/handler is present on field; BAER staff run ramp/apron operations directly for the scheduled carriers based here (Conviasa, Rutaca, LASER, Aerolineas Estelar). Per-carrier handling split is unconfirmed, and BAER's own corporate site (baer.gob.ve) currently lists only four airports under its administration (Margarita, Jose Antonio Anzoategui, La Chinita, Juan Pablo Perez Alfonzo) without referencing Maturin, so a Maturin-specific contact could not be verified and is left blank rather than asserted.

Aircraft fuel
Available
PDVSA (Petroleos de Venezuela, S.A.)
Sole national aviation-fuel supplier and into-plane agent under Venezuela's nationalized fuel-distribution system, under which PDVSA holds the country-wide monopoly on jet fuel and avgas supply and no private FBO fuelers operate anywhere in Venezuela. The airport's Spanish-language Wikipedia facilities summary confirms JET-A1 and AVGAS 100/130 servicio de combustible are available on field; the specific brand attribution to PDVSA follows from that national monopoly rather than a re-verified AC-U-KWIK citation (that page returned an access-blocked error on recheck).

Available · 3 providers
Transcarga International Airways (TIA)
Venezuelan all-cargo carrier confirmed as one of three named operators at MUN's cargo terminal (Terminal de Carga: Transcarga, Servicio Aereo Panamericano, Conviasa Cargo) in the airport's Spanish-language Wikipedia infrastructure listing; handles general/perishable freight to and from Maturin, a hub for Monagas state's petroleum-industry cargo.

Servicio Aereo Panamericano
Confirmed as one of three named cargo-terminal operators at MUN (alongside Transcarga and Conviasa Cargo) in the airport's Spanish-language Wikipedia infrastructure listing; no further operational detail (fleet, schedule, contact) located, so treated as unconfirmed pending a primary-source citation.

Conviasa Cargo
Cargo arm of the Venezuelan state carrier Conviasa - self-handled; confirmed as one of three named operators at MUN's cargo terminal in the airport's Spanish-language Wikipedia infrastructure listing, consistent with Conviasa's belly-hold cargo on its scheduled Maturin routes (Caracas, Maracaibo, Porlamar, Santo Domingo del Tachira, Tucupita).

Aviation security
Unconfirmed
Guardia Nacional Bolivariana (GNB) - Destacamento Aeroportuario Maturin
GNB maintains standing airport-security detachments at Venezuela's international airports as standard national practice, typically alongside PNB, SEBIN and DGCIM in the usual multi-agency model, so a GNB presence at Jose Tadeo Monagas Intl is plausible; however, the specific dedicated contact line and the claim of a distinct entry on an official airport facilities/contact sheet could not be re-verified on recheck - no such sheet was locatable, and the airport's Wikipedia infrastructure listing does not mention GNB or any security agency by name. Phone number withheld pending a verifiable source.

Bolivariana de Aeropuertos (BAER)
No dedicated FBO at MUN; slot coordination, aircraft parking and general-aviation flight-ops support are handled directly by airport operator BAER. FBO-aggregator listings for MUN describe no dedicated FBO on field and direct GA traffic to contact the airport operator for slots, parking and ground services - consistent with BAER's confirmed operator role, though the specific listing page could not be re-fetched on recheck to re-verify the exact wording.
