## Description

The code PYH belongs to Cacique Aramare Airport, named after an indigenous chieftain of Venezuela's Amazonas region. Serving Puerto Ayacucho, a river town on the Orinoco facing Colombia, the airport is a regional passenger gateway rather than a freight facility. No scheduled all-cargo flights operate here; goods move as belly freight on flights to and from Caracas. Shippers needing genuine airfreight capacity route through Caracas-Maiquetía (CCS) and forward onward by road and river barge. The surrounding rainforest, reachable mainly by air and water, keeps the airport's role firmly local.
