Distance & flight time from AVI
Máximo Gómez Airport
Máximo Gómez Airport serves the area around Ciro Redondo in Ciego de Ávila province, central Cuba. Named after Máximo Gómez, a celebrated general of Cuban and Dominican independence movements in the nineteenth century, the field sits at 335 feet. One runway here handles limited domestic flight activity in this agricultural part of central Cuba, known for sugar cane production. Scheduled commercial service through this airport remains modest compared with Cuba's larger tourist-oriented airports along the coast. Most international visitors to Cuba's beach resorts nearby arrive instead through larger gateways, leaving Máximo Gómez Airport to handle a smaller share of domestic and charter traffic. Its single-runway design reflects the airport's function as a regional rather than international facility.
