Gateway to Venezuela's northeastern Caribbean coast.

Location
Carúpano, Venezuela
General Francisco Bermúdez Airport (IATA: CUP, ICAO: SVCP) serves Carúpano, a port city in Sucre State on the northeastern coast of Venezuela. The airport is named after Venezuelan independence hero General Francisco Bermúdez, reflecting the region's deep historical ties to the independence movement. The airport handles domestic flights connecting Carúpano to Caracas and other Venezuelan cities, serving as an important link for a region whose road access can be limited. Its location near the Caribbean coast and the Paria Peninsula makes it relevant for both local residents and visitors to the area. Operations have historically been subject to the broader challenges facing Venezuelan aviation, including economic constraints, reduced airline capacity, and infrastructure limitations that have affected much of the country's regional airport network.
Terminals
The airport features a small, single terminal consistent with its regional domestic-service role.
Getting to & from
Ground transport to central Carúpano is primarily available via taxis and informal shared transport, as the city lies a short distance from the airport.
Airlines here
Domestic carriers serving Venezuelan routes, historically including Conviasa, have operated at this airport, though service frequency has varied significantly due to the country's aviation sector instability.
