Alfredo Vásquez Cobo International Airport (Spanish: Aeropuerto Internacional Alfredo Vásquez Cobo, IATA: LET, ICAO: SKLT) is an international airport in the city of Letizia, the southernmost capital of the province of Colombia.
The airport is important for the Amazon region as it is the main gateway to the rest of the country and serves the tri-border region between Colombia, Brazil and Peru. Before the installation of the Letizia airport, the PBY Catalina planes of the Colombian Air Force flew from the interior of Colombia to the banks of the city. Gustavo Rojas Pinilla saw the need to better connect the Colombian Amazon region with Bogotá and failed to build an airport. In 2015, the then President of Colombia, Juan Manuel Santos, announced an investment of more than 142 billion Colombian pesos (about 42 million US dollars) to replace existing facilities with new passenger and cargo terminals, control towers, parking lots and public areas. It ends on November 30, 2018, but due to delays, the new facility is expected to be completed in June 2019.
On January 28, 2021, 200 international tourists were stranded in the state of Leticia after a highly contagious variant of the Brazilian virus, COVID-19, was found in the city. Two weeks later, the government succeeded in deporting the tourists from the Alfredo Vázquez Cobo airport if the individuals were willing to pay. Regular flights resumed on March 2.
