About Colonia Laguna de Los Patos International Airport
Serving Colonia del Sacramento in the Colonia Department of southwestern Uruguay, Laguna de los Patos International Airport is a compact regional and general aviation gateway. It handles private flights, charters and limited commercial traffic for travellers visiting this historic port city on the Río de la Plata.
The airport lies approximately 8 km from the city centre and is reached via Route 1, the main road linking Colonia del Sacramento with Montevideo. Its single terminal building processes domestic and international passengers, while the airfield operates a single asphalt runway designated 13/31.
Ground transportation is straightforward, with taxis and pre-arranged private transfers connecting the terminal to the city's UNESCO-listed historic quarter, hotels and surrounding destinations. Because passenger facilities are limited, the airport is best suited to regional travel, private aviation and short stays rather than long layovers.
