Roughly 2,600 feet — Benjamin Rivera Noriega Airport (CPX) on Culebra operates one of the shortest commercial runways under the U.S. flag, reached by a descent over a hill ridge that pilots brief carefully and passengers never forget. Air Flamenco and Vieques Air Link connect the small island with San Juan, Isla Grande and Ceiba using light aircraft only. Cargo travels as carry-on here: coolers, spare parts, mail bags. Anything heavier crosses by ferry from Ceiba, and proper air freight for Culebra is handled through San Juan (SJU).
