๐จ๐ด Puerto Berrio, Colombia
Puerto Berrรญo Airport (PBE), also known as Morela Airport, is a regional aviation facility serving the municipality of Puerto Berrรญo in the Antioquia Department of Colombia. The airport features a single-story passenger terminal building designed to facilitate regional domestic travel and charter operations for the Middle Magdalena region. It is situated approximately 1.9 miles (3 km) south of the town center, along the west bank of the Magdalena River.
The terminal infrastructure is basic and functional, providing a modest waiting area and essential check-in counters for regional travelers. In 2021, a new access bridge was completed to provide safer entry for vehicles and pedestrians from the main regional road. While the facility lacks on-site commercial restaurants or retail shops, its small scale ensures short walking distances and rapid passenger processing for the typically low-volume regional flights.
Operationally, the airport features a 4,229-foot (1,289m) asphalt runway (18/36) and operates strictly during daylight hours, as the field is not equipped with runway lighting. It acts as a vital link for the local cattle and agricultural industries, primarily connecting the town to Olaya Herrera Airport (EOH) in Medellรญn via small carriers like Moon Flights. Ground transportation to the city center is informal, typically managed via local taxis or private vehicle arrangements.
Puerto Berrรญo Airport (PBE) serves the river town of Puerto Berrรญo in the Antioquia Department of Colombia. Ground transport into town (approx. 3km away) consists of local taxis and 'moto-taxis' which can be called from town or occasionally meet pre-announced arrivals. The facility is utilitarian with a single paved runway and zero passenger terminal amenities.
It primarily handles air taxis, private charters, and domestic general aviation. Most travelers reach the region by road from Medellรญn (approx. 3-4 hour drive) or via the Magdalena River boat services The area is a major hub for livestock and logistics Most travelers are connecting to river traffic, hotel pickups, or private charters rather than conventional airline banks, so the airport fits best as a controlled transfer point.
There is currently NO regular scheduled commercial passenger service If arriving by air, ensure you have pre-arranged a pickup through your local host. The Magdalena River frontage and the town's logistics role mean that flights here are often just one part of a longer inland or riverine journey through Antioquia. A pre-arranged host pickup is the simplest way to handle the Magdalena River frontage. River schedules and the town pickup are what make this airport useful for inland trips.
