Tibú Airport (IATA: TIB, ICAO: SKTB) is a public airport serving the municipality of Tibú, located in the Norte de Santander Department of Colombia. It is situated in the remote Catatumbo region, an area known for its complex geography and significant oil production activities.
The airport plays a crucial role in connecting Tibú to the rest of Colombia, particularly due to the challenging terrestrial access to the region. While it handles some limited commercial passenger traffic, its operations primarily support cargo, charter flights, and logistics for the oil industry, especially for companies like Ecopetrol.
The airport features a single paved runway. It is managed by Aerocivil (Unidad Administrativa Especial de Aeronáutica Civil), Colombia's civil aviation authority. Due to its location in an area that has historically faced security challenges, the airport's operations are sometimes influenced by regional conditions.
