Yariguíes Airport is the main air terminal serving Barrancabermeja and the entire Magdalena Medio region. It plays a key role, more regional than international, but is fundamental for the connectivity of a strategic oil-producing area in Colombia.

General Information

IATA Code: EJA

ICAO Code: SKEJ

Location: Approximately 6–10 km from the city center of Barrancabermeja

Type: Public Airport

Altitude: ~397 feet (121 m)

Technical Characteristics

Runway:

Single runway 04/22

Length: 1,800 meters

It has lighting for night operations and its own control tower.

Its name honors the Yariguíes indigenous people, who inhabited the Middle Magdalena region.

In 2013, it underwent a major modernization:

Expansion of terminals and check-in counters

Improvements to baggage handling and the apron

Increased passenger capacity

This aimed to strengthen connectivity for a city that is key to the oil industry.

Operation and Routes

It is primarily a domestic airport.

The most important route:

Barrancabermeja ↔ Bogotá

Airlines that have operated:

Avianca

EasyFly / Clic (regional)

It is not a high-traffic airport, but it is vital for business travel, the oil industry, and quick connections to the capital.

Strategic Importance

Barrancabermeja is one of the country's most important oil centers, so the airport:

Facilitates the transport of technical and business personnel

Supports industrial operations

Reduces travel times compared to ground transportation

Operational Characteristics

Can be affected by weather conditions (frequent fog)

Operates under instrument flight rules in some cases

Has moderate traffic (dozens of daily operations during peak times)

In summary

Connects the Magdalena Medio region with Bogotá

Supports the oil economy

Has been modernized to improve its capacity
