Orán Airport (ORA)

Orán Airport (ORA), also known as Aeroclub Orán, is a regional aviation facility serving the city of San Ramón de la Nueva Orán in the Salta Province of Argentina. The airport features a modest passenger terminal building that primarily functions as the administrative hub for the local Aeroclub. It serves as a vital link for the Bermejo River valley, supporting medical evacuations, government transport, and private agricultural aviation. The terminal facilities are functional and geared toward non-scheduled flight operations, offering a small waiting area and administrative offices for pilots and crews. While there are no on-site commercial shops, restaurants, or duty-free outlets, the facility provides essential services for general aviation, including a flight school and hangarage for based aircraft. Travelers are advised to coordinate all logistical needs, such as food and water, in the nearby city center. The airfield features a 4,834-foot (1,473m) asphalt runway (01/19) and is maintained for daylight operations. While there is no regular scheduled commercial airline service at ORA, the airport is frequently used for private charter flights and by the provincial government. Ground transportation to central Orán is readily available via local taxis and private transfers, with the journey typically taking only a few minutes due to the airport's proximity to the urban area.
