History

The airport was built in the 1970s, with small aircraft serving sporadic trips between San Andrés and Providencia Island.

Prior to 1984, the airport had limited traffic from San Andrés Airport due to its short runway.

Under Governor Gonzales, architect Ricardo Gonzalez Farah lengthened the runway by 300 metres (980 ft) and rebuilt the passenger terminal in typical Caribbean architecture. After the upgrades, SAM Colombia began flights from San Andrés. Later, the airport was again refurbished, with improved air terminal facilities.
