Cafayate's airfield sits at roughly 1,640 metres in the Calchaquí valleys of Argentina's Salta province, the heart of Torrontés wine country. The strip serves light aircraft, charter and air-taxi flights; there is no scheduled service, no freight terminal, no cargo handling and no customs post, so it plays no freight role. Wine leaves the region in containers by road, while air cargo is handled at Salta (SLA) about 190 km to the north and onward through Buenos Aires Ezeiza (EZE).
