The Baracoa Regional Airport (IATA: MGN, ICAO: SKMG) air terminal is located in northwestern Magangué in Colombia.
The Baracoa Regional Airport used to be a hub for airline operations such as Avianca, LANZA and Satena. However, on January 4, 1969, the airport ceased its commercial passenger flight operations and closed its flight schools, following a decision to focus on traffic from smaller aircraft.
It is the main airport in the Mojana Province, and is used for the landing of both small aircraft and helicopters. The airport is 12 miles (19 km) from downtown Magangué, and the track is in good condition and suitable for landings.[citation needed]
