Although my time in Ecuador wasnβt that great, this airport became my favourite during my trip in South America. Uncomplicated, clean, spacious, plenty of seating areas with direct view of the runway.
I want to move to Ecuador with my Cessna 172. I cannot find contact information about this airport to learn if I can rent a hangar or if there is a mechanic on the field. Can someone please help me?

Por favor informacion desde Machala Gen Manuel Serrano airport hasta Catamayo y tambien Santa Rosa Regional airport para Viernes en Febrero 2015??
UIO airport is a very interesting and it takes a while to know the approaching procedures specially using VOR and ILS. Give it a try! A beautiful city in one of the best countries I ever visit
I was air america pilot here I 1980s. Best to be well trained before arrival. Mountains 3 sides. Severe drop off cliffs on both ends. There is no go around unless you are in a fighter. Approach straight in land to west take off to east. Always low ceiling and fog mist. Surrounded by river. We could get loaded c130 in here. Barely. Had a leased dehavilland that was better and safer. Oh yes there is a volcano off the east end about 7 miles outnon otherwise flat terrain. This is a real got ya if you are not paying attention. Also we are missing a c130 and crew out there somewhere. If you find wreckage report it.
re: Scheduled service to/from General Villamil Airport
There is scheduled airline service as i saw firsthand, but only 1 flight per day.
Emetebe Avionetas
info from tripwolf as Emetebe's website is up and down:
Emetebe Avionetas (offices in Puerto Baquerizo Moreno, Puerto Ayora and Puerto Villamil are given in the corresponding sections below; in Guayaquil T04-229 2492) offer inter-island flights in two light twin-engine aircraft. Two daily flights operate between Puerto Baquerizo Moreno (San CristΓ³bal), Baltra and Puerto Villamil (Isabela), most days except Sunday, but this varies with passenger demand. All fares US$158 one way, including taxes.

Looks like this airport does not exist anymore. The code SEJM has been removed from the latest ICAO7910 doc.
SEQU remains in use ...

But only as a heliport for the Ecuadorian military and local fire and police departments.
