Coronel FAP Francisco Secada Vignetta International Airport

Coronel FAP Francisco Secada Vignetta International Airport serves Iquitos, the largest city in the world that is not accessible by road. Located in the Loreto Region of northeastern Peru, the airport is the primary and only practical means of arriving in Iquitos other than by river. The airport handles both domestic routes connecting Iquitos to Lima and other Peruvian cities, as well as some international traffic. It plays a critical role in supplying the city and supporting the Amazon tourism industry, including river cruise operations and jungle lodge visits. The facility is named after Coronel FAP Francisco Secada Vignetta, a Peruvian Air Force officer. It operates under the administration of Peru's airport authority and has seen infrastructure improvements to handle growing passenger volumes in recent decades.
