Las Mercedes Airport (ICAO: SVNE) is a small general aviation and regional airfield located in Venezuela. It serves the town of Las Mercedes in Guárico state, providing basic air access to an otherwise remote area of the Venezuelan interior. The airport operates at a limited capacity, primarily supporting light aircraft, charter flights, and agricultural or oil-industry-related operations common to the Venezuelan interior. It does not hold an IATA code, reflecting its status as a non-commercial or very low-traffic facility. Infrastructure at the airport is modest, consistent with many rural Venezuelan airstrips. Detailed operational data, including precise runway specifications and current service status, are not widely published in international aviation databases.
