Crnl. FAP Francisco Secada Vignetta International Airport, International airport in Iquitos, Peru.

Crnl. FAP Francisco Secada Vignetta International Airport is an international airport in Iquitos located approximately 7 kilometers (4 miles) southeast of the city center, featuring a 2,500-meter asphalt runway. The facility handles commercial flights connecting the city to destinations across Peru and beyond.

The airport received its current name in 1973 to honor Francisco Secada Vignetta, a Peruvian Air Force pilot who served during the 1932 war. This naming choice reflects the country's recognition of his contribution to national history.

The airport holds ISO-9001 certification, making it the only airport facility in the Amazon region with this recognized quality management standard. This distinguishes it from other regional airports in terms of operational management.
