Coronel FAP Francisco Secada Vignetta International Airport (IATA: IQT, ICAO: SPQT), also known as Iquitos International Airport, is the international airport that serves the City of Iquitos, the capital of Loreto, Peru. It is considered one of the main airports in Peru. It is located 7 km (4.5 miles) southwest of Downtown Iquitos. It has a single 2,500 meter (8,202 ft) runway numbered 06-24, resting on a plain near the Nanay River. It is administered by Airports of Peru, who obtained the concession in 2006, and serves more than 1 million people a year, being the fourth airport with the highest air traffic in Peru after the airports of Lima, Cusco and Arequipa. It is the only airport in the Amazon that has the ISO9001 seal.
It is served by airlines such as LATAM Peru, Sky Airline, Star Peru and Viva Air Peru. It is the main air terminal in the Peruvian Amazon, which receives daily nine direct commercial flights to Lima and flights to Pucallpa and Tarapoto. It is used mainly as a connecting point for several small cities, towns and other locations in the jungle.
The airport has an important value because the City of Iquitos is only accessible by air and river
Excellent for the price. It's a small airport, but had no problem handling a DC-10. Don't expect something you'd find for over twice as much, but a welcome and attractive departure or destination in Peru.
