Copán Ruinas Airport is a newly completed airport serving the town of Copán Ruinas in Honduras. The runway is approximately east of the town.
The airport was opened in 2015, and is expected to provide easier tourist access to the Mayan ruins at Copán.[2] A second construction phase is planned that will allow aircraft with up to 100 passengers to land.[3] [4]
There are low hills in all quadrants.
The Puerto Barrios VOR-DME (Ident: IOS) is located 55nmi north-northeast of the airport.[5]
