Cap FAP David Abenzur Rengifo International Airport (PCL)

Cap FAP David Abenzur Rengifo International Airport (PCL), also known as Pucallpa International Airport, is the primary aviation hub for the Ucayali Region in the Peruvian Amazon. The airport operates from a single, compact two-story passenger terminal building designed to handle domestic flights and regional Amazonian charters. Located approximately 3 miles (5 km) southwest of the Pucallpa city center, it acts as a critical gateway for commerce and tourism in eastern Peru. The terminal infrastructure provides a range of amenities for travelers, including the Caral VIP Lounge located airside, which offers air conditioning, refreshments, and dedicated workspaces. Passengers have access to several small cafés and snack bars serving local Amazonian beverages and quick bites, alongside souvenir stalls selling traditional Shipibo textiles and crafts. The facility is fully accessible, featuring specialized mother and child rooms and staff assistance for passengers with limited mobility. Ground transportation to central Pucallpa and the scenic Yarinacocha district is well-supported by local taxi services and traditional moto-taxis located directly outside the arrivals hall, with the journey typically taking 10 to 15 minutes. The airport is primarily served by LATAM Perú and Sky Airline, providing frequent daily links to Lima. Due to the region's humid tropical climate, travelers are advised to arrive at least two hours before departure and to carry essential insect repellent for the arrivals area.
