La Plata Airport
La Plata Airport, coded LPG, serves La Plata, the capital of Buenos Aires Province in Argentina, a planned city known for its distinctive grid layout and diagonal avenues designed in the 1880s. LPG primarily handles general aviation, flight training, and some domestic charter activity, since most commercial air travel for the La Plata area routes through the much larger airports serving greater Buenos Aires, such as Ezeiza or Aeroparque.

La Plata itself is home to a major national university and a well-known cathedral, but LPG's traffic remains modest compared to the capital region's main commercial gateways.
