Regional gateway serving Patagonia's oil-producing Neuquén heartland.

Location
Cutral-Co, Argentina
Cutral-Co Airport (IATA: CUT, ICAO: SAZW) is a small regional airport located near the city of Cutral-Co in the Neuquén Province of Argentina. It serves the local oil-producing community and surrounding Patagonian region, providing air connectivity to other Argentine cities.
