Gateway to Patagonia's remote Lago Buenos Aires region.

Location
Perito Moreno, Argentina
Perito Moreno Jalil Hamer Airport (IATA: PMQ, ICAO: SAWP) serves the town of Perito Moreno in the Santa Cruz Province of Argentine Patagonia. The airport provides essential air connectivity to this remote region, which is otherwise accessible primarily by long overland routes across the Patagonian steppe. The airport is named in honor of Francisco Pascasio Moreno, the Argentine explorer and naturalist known as 'Perito Moreno,' and additionally carries the name Jalil Hamer. It handles a modest volume of domestic traffic, primarily linking the area to larger Argentine cities such as Buenos Aires and Comodoro Rivadavia. The surrounding area is known for its proximity to Lago Buenos Aires, one of the largest lakes in South America, and serves as a base for visitors exploring the rugged Patagonian landscape. The airport plays a vital role in the regional economy and local connectivity.
Terminals
The airport features a single small terminal building suited to the low passenger volumes of a regional Patagonian airport.
Getting to & from
Ground transport between the airport and the town of Perito Moreno is typically provided by taxi or private vehicle, as the town is relatively small and close to the airport.
