Remote Amazon-interior gateway near Brazil's tri-border area with Colombia and Venezuela, administered by the São Gabriel da Cachoeira municipal government rather than Infraero. Azul operates subsidized ATR-72 turboprop service to Manaus (Eduardo Gomes Intl) a few times weekly under the Azul Conecta regional network; a Polícia Federal post is maintained on site given the border-region location, but the airport itself handles domestic traffic only, with no customs/immigration facilities.

SJL Airport (Aeroporto de Uaupés) — Administração
Airport administration is the only aviation-services entity documented at this remote single-runway municipal strip (administered per Wikipedia by the Prefeitura Municipal de São Gabriel da Cachoeira, branded SJL Airport online); it is the presumed handler of passenger/baggage processing for the sole scheduled carrier, MAP Linhas Aéreas (Manaus route, Wed/Fri/Sun) — no separate third-party ground handler documented; carrier self-handling is also plausible but unconfirmed.
