Distance & flight time from CUP

General Francisco Bermúdez Airport

Along Venezuela's cacao-growing northeastern coast, Carupano's airport takes its name from an independence-era general and operates under the code CUP, offering a modest domestic link for a town better known for colonial architecture and lively Carnival celebrations than for aviation traffic. Economic difficulties across Venezuela have thinned scheduled flights considerably, leaving the airport with a fraction of the activity it once handled. Fishing and small-scale cacao and coconut agriculture continue to anchor Carupano's local economy, and the airfield remains a practical, if infrequent, option compared to the long coastal highway drive toward Cumana or Caracas.
