SATENA
State-owned regional carrier with scheduled ATR turboprop service linking PUU to Bogotá and Puerto Leguízamo, confirmed as a current route. Aerocivil's own AIP for SKAS records "Servicios de Escala: No" (no independent ground-handling company at this aerodrome) and states cargo-handling facilities are "a cargo de las empresas aéreas" (in charge of the airlines) — official confirmation that SATENA self-handles its own ramp and cargo operations at Puerto Asís rather than using a third-party handler.

Clic Air (formerly EasyFly)
Regional carrier (rebranded from EasyFly) operating scheduled flights between PUU and Bogotá/Cali, confirmed as a current route. As with SATENA, Aerocivil's AIP for SKAS records no independent ground-handling company at this aerodrome ("Servicios de Escala: No"; cargo handling "a cargo de las empresas aéreas"), so Clic Air is understood to self-handle at this station; no third-party handler is documented.

Aircraft fuel
Unconfirmed
Organización Terpel S.A.
Aerocivil's AIP for SKAS confirms Jet A1 fuel is physically available at PUU with dedicated fuelling facilities (AD 2.4: "Tipo de Combustible y Lubricantes: JET A1"; "Instalaciones y Capacidad de Abastecimiento de Combustible: Sí"), so a fuelling service genuinely exists at this airport. Terpel is Colombia's dominant Jet A-1/Avgas distributor nationwide, but Puerto Asís/PUU could not be confirmed on its published airport-coverage list, so Terpel specifically as the supplying company remains unconfirmed rather than documented; no alternative named fuel supplier for PUU was found either.

Aeronáutica Civil de Colombia (Aerocivil)
Aerocivil directly administers Tres de Mayo Airport (PUU/SKAS) as a non-concessioned, state-run aerodrome. Confirmed via Aerocivil's own official AIP for SKAS (AD 2.2, item 6: "Administración del aeródromo: Unidad Administrativa Especial de Aeronáutica Civil"), which lists Aerocivil as the aerodrome administrator and gives tower/admin phone •••. Aerocivil also provides tower ATS, AIS and MET (Estación Meteorológica de Aeródromo) and directly tenders airport infrastructure works here, e.g. a SECOP procurement listing for a second-phase control tower/terminal build. A distinct commercial FBO/trip-support desk beyond the ANSP/administration function is unconfirmed. · Limited/variable by day; aerodrome operates as uncontrolled outside published ATS hours (Aerocivil AIP AD 2.3).
