Island gateway connecting San Andrés to Colombia and beyond.
Opened
1953
Location
San Andrés, Colombia
Gustavo Rojas Pinilla International Airport (IATA: ADZ, ICAO: SKSP) serves the island of San Andrés, a Colombian Caribbean archipelago territory in the southwestern Caribbean Sea. Named after former Colombian president and general Gustavo Rojas Pinilla, the airport is the primary point of entry for tourists and residents visiting this popular resort island.
The airport handles a significant volume of leisure traffic, particularly from Bogotá, Medellín, and other major Colombian cities, as San Andrés is a free-trade zone and a top domestic tourist destination. It also offers limited international connectivity to neighboring Central American countries.
Due to its island location and the controlled immigration status of San Andrés—where visitors require a tourist card called a Tarjeta de Turismo—the airport plays a critical regulatory role in managing visitor arrivals to protect the island's fragile ecosystem and population limits.
Terminals
The airport operates a single passenger terminal handling both domestic and international flights.
Getting to & from
Ground transport from the airport into San Andrés town is available via taxis and rental vehicles, as the island is small and distances are short.
Airlines here
Avianca and LATAM Colombia are the primary carriers serving the airport, with additional service from Wingo and Copa Airlines.
