Santiago Mariño Caribbean International Airport (Spanish: Aeropuerto Internacional del Caribe "Santiago Mariño", IATA: PMV, ICAO: SVMG) is an airport 12 kilometres (7.5 mi) west-southwest of Porlamar, the largest city on Isla Margarita, an island in the state of Nueva Esparta in Venezuela.

History

[edit]

According to the Official Airline Guide (OAG), the airport had scheduled passenger airline service from Europe and the U.S. during the early 1990s including nonstop flights from Frankfurt, London, Miami, Milan and New York City operated by VIASA.[4] Additionally, several European and Canadian carriers, such as Condor, LTU (merged with Air Berlin in 2009), TUI Airways, TUI fly Netherlands, TUI fly Nordic, Martinair, Air Canada, and Air Transat, among others, had seasonal and charter services to Porlamar in the 1990s and 2000s. Long-haul operations from the airport have since largely ended (except, as of 2023, for a Nordwind Airlines charter flight to Moscow), but short and medium haul international flight still exist as of today. From autumn 2023 LOT Polish Airlines operated charter flights from Warsaw and Katowice.[5]
