Alcantarí International Airport (IATA: SRE, ICAO: SLAL) is the main airport serving Sucre, Bolivia, the nation's constitutional capital city. It is located approximately 32 km (20 mi) southeast of Sucre, in the Yamparáez municipality. It was inaugurated on 15 May 2016 to replace the former Juana Azurduy de Padilla International Airport, whose operational limitations caused by its challenging conditions impeded the city’s connectivity.
The airport introduced a 24-hour service, markedly improving upon its predecessor. Passenger volume reached 521,844 travelers in 2023, evidencing its consolidation as a regional hub. The airport is primarily served by the country's main carrier, Boliviana de Aviación as well as other airlines such as EcoJet and TAMep. It has connections to Bolivia’s principal urban centers.
