Iguassú (Iguaçu after 1945) National Park Airport was an airport that served Foz do Iguaçu, Brazil until 1974, when Foz do Iguaçu International Airport was opened. On that very occasion the airport was closed.
Iguassú National Park Airport was the first airport of Foz do Iguaçu, Brazil. It was opened in 1941 but a landing strip existed on the site since 1935, when the first plane landed on April 1.[1] In 1938 Panair do Brasil started flying to the location as a stop on a flight from Rio de Janeiro and Curitiba to Asunción and Buenos Aires.[2] In 1945 the spelling changed to Iguaçu National Park Airport.
Because of its proximity to the urban center, the airport was closed on January 6, 1974, when Foz do Iguaçu International Airport was opened at a different location.[3]
The former runway is now a green area. The former terminal has been preserved as part of GRESFI club and since August 26, 2024 it is a City Heritage Protected building.[4]
Panair do Brasil, Real, Sadia and Varig once served the airport.
The airport was located 1km (01miles) south of downtown Foz do Iguaçu.
