## Description

LATAM and Sky are the carriers that matter at Carlos Ciriani Santa Rosa Airport (IATA: TCQ, ICAO: SPTN), and their Lima flights carry most of its freight: the airport accounted for roughly a quarter of the 4,720 tonnes moved across the Aeropuertos Andinos del Perú network in 2023. That consortium has held the concession since 2011, after runway rehabilitation and a terminal extension completed in 2014. There is no dedicated cargo terminal and no bonded warehouse on site — consignments travel as belly cargo, and SUNAT customs formalities take place off airport. Ground services are provided by operators including Talma, present at some 20 Peruvian airports. Distances are short: five kilometres to the city centre, 27 kilometres to the Chilean border, about 55 kilometres to Arica and roughly 1,300 kilometres to Lima, in a region shaped by the ZOFRATACNA free zone. Heavier or time-critical shipments are usually routed via Arica (ARI) in Chile or Jorge Chávez in Lima (LIM). Peru's transport ministry has since handed the concessionaire the land for a planned expansion, with the associated investment earmarked for 2026.
