Ricardo García Posada Airport

El Salvador, Chile · South America

A daylight-only Atacama mining aerodrome with one scheduled operator (Aerovías DAP to Santiago). It is simple if you follow DAP’s 90/45/15-minute check-in rule and bring your own food, water and transfer. It is hard going if you expect a lounge, a café or a tight Santiago connection.
