Regional hub for southern Venezuela served exclusively by Venezuelan domestic carriers (Conviasa, Avior, Estelar, LASER, Rutaca, Turpial); retains nominal customs/immigration as a designated port of entry but no confirmed active international scheduled service was found — consistent with the broader contraction of Venezuelan air connectivity under prolonged US sanctions and economic crisis. Passenger figure above is an unsourced, undated legacy estimate (marked citation-needed on Spanish Wikipedia) and should be treated as unverified/pre-crisis, not a current official statistic; no working official airport website, admin phone, or email could be verified during research.

Guardia Nacional Bolivariana (GNB)
National gendarmerie maintains standing security/law-enforcement presence at Venezuela's state-run airports as national policy.com.ve, elnacional.com, elpitazo.net, notifalcon.com, panorama.onl) explicitly states no injuries or casualties occurred (sin causar victimas) and none mention GNB personnel being harmed; that evidence was fabricated and is removed. Independent on-field confirmation of GNB deployment specifically at PZO was not located beyond general national practice. Claim that PNB (Policia Nacional Bolivariana) Migracion staffs passport/border control at the terminal is unconfirmed; currently verified PZO routes (Caracas, Maracaibo, Porlamar, Valencia, Santa Elena de Uairen, El Vigia) are domestic, so a dedicated international immigration desk was not corroborated.
