Distance & flight time from BYM
Carlos Manuel de Cespedes Airport
Carlos Manuel de Cespedes Airport serves Bayamo, the capital of Granma Province in eastern Cuba. Elevation is listed at 203 feet, with a single runway handling operations. Coded BYM, the airport connects Bayamo primarily to Havana, supporting the limited domestic air network linking Cuba's provincial capitals to the capital city. Granma Province occupies part of eastern Cuba near the Sierra Maestra mountains, and Bayamo itself sits inland from the coast in a region built around agriculture. As with many Cuban provincial airports, BYM handles modest passenger volumes, with most travelers relying on domestic flights or road connections rather than international routes, since Cuba's international traffic concentrates heavily in Havana and the tourist-focused airports along the coast.
