Gateway to Peru's high jungle region of San Martín.

Location
Moyobamba, Peru
Moyobamba Airport (IATA: MBP, ICAO: SPBB) is a small domestic airport serving Moyobamba, the capital of the San Martín region in northern Peru. Situated in the high jungle (selva alta) zone of the country, it provides essential air connectivity for a city that is otherwise accessible primarily by road. The airport handles limited scheduled domestic traffic and is operated under the oversight of Peru's national aviation authority, CORPAC (Corporación Peruana de Aeropuertos y Aviación Comercial). Its facilities are modest, reflecting the relatively low passenger volume of the region. Moyobamba itself is known as the 'City of Orchids' and is one of Peru's oldest cities. Air access through the airport plays an important role in linking this remote region to Lima and other Peruvian urban centers.
Terminals
The airport has a single small terminal building typical of regional Peruvian domestic airports with basic passenger facilities.
Getting to & from
Ground transport between the airport and Moyobamba city center is primarily via taxi or mototaxi, the common local transport mode in the region.
Airlines here
