Airport contact
Cacique Aramare is a regional/domestic-only airport serving Puerto Ayacucho, capital of Amazonas state, with Conviasa (Venezuela's state carrier) operating essentially the sole scheduled route — one daily ATR-42/Embraer 190 flight to Simon Bolivar International (Caracas/Maiquetia) — plus interior charter service to remote Amazonas settlements (San Juan de Manapiare, Maroa, San Fernando de Atabapo, San Carlos de Rio Negro, La Esmeralda). It has no current international service, customs, or immigration facilities, consistent with Venezuela's reduced post-sanctions aviation footprint; no INAC-published passenger-traffic figures or direct airport contact details could be verified, so pax and contact fields above should be treated as unavailable rather than zero/confirmed-absent.

Conviasa (Consorcio Venezolano de Industrias Aeronáuticas y Servicios Aéreos, S.A.)
Venezuela's state airline is confirmed as the sole scheduled carrier at PYH (route to Caracas-Maiquetía; some sources also list a Puerto Ayacucho-San Fernando de Apure link); at small regional stations Conviasa typically self-handles its own ramp, baggage, belly-cargo and passenger turnaround (self-handled, in-house, Conviasa) — no independent third-party ground-handling or cargo agent is documented at this field.

Unconfirmed
Guardia Nacional Bolivariana (GNB) - Destacamento de Seguridad Aeroportuaria
Aviation security, screening and border/customs control at Venezuela's national airports is standardly provided by GNB airport-security detachments working alongside INAC; PYH sits on the Orinoco River near the Colombia border in Amazonas state, making a permanent GNB presence likely, though a station-specific detachment citation was not found.

Instituto Nacional de Aeronáutica Civil (INAC)
Cacique Aramare (SVPA/PYH) sits within Venezuela's INAC-run national airspace/ANS network; INAC is the country's civil aviation authority and air navigation service provider (ATC, AIS, flight-information) for all Venezuelan aerodromes including this one. Physical terminal/airport-facility administration for PYH itself is reported as devolved to the Amazonas state Gobernación and the Infrastructure Ministry rather than INAC directly (es.wikipedia.org); no dedicated station-level flight-support/FBO desk or named INAC contact is documented for this field.
