About This Airport
Anyone planning freight to Sucre should note that the field named Juana Azurduy de Padilla (ICAO SLSU) is no longer a commercial airport: passenger operations ended on 15 May 2016 after 41 years, and the site at roughly 2,900 metres now serves as a Bolivian Air Force base. Its altitude, frequent cloud cover and daylight-only operating hours had made reliable service to Bolivia's constitutional capital impossible. No scheduled flights, cargo handling or customs post remain here, and the IATA code SRE transferred to the replacement airport. That role passed to Alcantarí (SRE, SLAL) some 30 kilometres south, which can operate around the clock and links Sucre with La Paz and Santa Cruz, where air freight moves essentially as belly cargo. Larger or time-critical consignments for the Chuquisaca department route through Viru Viru in Santa Cruz (VVI), Bolivia's main cargo gateway, with El Alto near La Paz (LPB) as an alternative.
