| Airport | Code | From centre | Longest runway | Elevation |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Dr. Antonio Nicolás Briceño Airport (regional) | VLV | 3 km (2 mi) | 6,791 ft | 2,060 ft |
| Barinas Airport (regional) | BNS | 89 km (55 mi) | 6,560 ft | 615 ft |
Runway length is a practical tell: at 6,791 ft, VLV handles short and medium-haul aircraft, so a long-haul trip will connect somewhere else first. The airport sits at 2,060 ft; that is low enough that altitude never restricts departures.
