Gustavo Rojas Pinilla International Airport (IATA: ADZ, ICAO: SKSP) is the main airport in the archipelago of San Andrés, Providencia and Santa Catalina, one of the departments of Colombia. It is able to receive large aircraft and to accommodate seasonal and charter flights from different parts of the Americas and Europe.
The San Andres VOR-DME (Ident: SPP) and non-directional beacon (Ident: SPP) are located on the field.
The air terminal was renamed in honor of General Gustavo Rojas Pinilla, former president of the Republic of Colombia, who ordered the airport built in the mid-1950s in order to link this Caribbean island
with the continental territory of Colombia. The original name of the airport was “Sesquicentenario Airport”
The airport is the sixth busiest airport in Colombia in terms of passengers, with 836,234 in 2006. Most of these passengers come from the continental part of the country, due to poor international direct
service to the island. Many international tourists have to fly to one of Colombia’s or Panama’s largest airports (Bogotá, Medellín, Cali, Santa Marta, Cartagena, Barranquilla or Panama City) to be able to
reach the islands. Aircraft up to the size of the Airbus A340-200 can land at the airport.
