Small regional airport serving the San Martín region of Peru.

Location
El Dorado, Peru
San José de Sisa Airport is a small general aviation and regional airport located near the town of San José de Sisa in the El Dorado province of San Martín region, Peru. It serves as a local air access point for an area that is otherwise reliant on road transport through the rugged Andean foothills. The airport operates under the ICAO code SPSJ and does not hold an IATA code, reflecting its limited commercial traffic. It primarily supports light aircraft, charter flights, and occasional government or humanitarian operations serving the surrounding communities. The El Dorado province is a largely rural area, and the airport plays a modest but important role in connecting remote communities to the broader Peruvian air transport network when road conditions are difficult.
