Manaus Eduardo Gomes International Airport, located approximately 14 km (9 mi) north of downtown Manaus, Brazil, is an important transportation hub in the region. The airport is operated by Vinci Airports and is named in honor of Air Marshal Eduardo Gomes (1896–1981), a prominent Brazilian politician and military figure.
In 1976, International Airport took over the role of the primary public airport in Manaus from Ponta Pelada Airport, which was subsequently renamed Manaus Air Force Base and dedicated exclusively to military operations. This transition marked the beginning of a new era for the city’s air transportation infrastructure.
The airport encompasses two passenger terminal buildings. Passenger Terminal 1 serves as the primary facility for both domestic and international flights, accommodating a significant volume of passenger traffic. On the other hand, Passenger Terminal 2, which was inaugurated on March 12, 1985, is dedicated to general aviation activities, catering to private and smaller aircraft.
In addition to the passenger terminals, Eduardo Gomes International Airport features three cargo terminals. These terminals, established in 1976, 1980, and 2004 respectively, occupy a total area of 49,000 square meters (530,000 square feet). Together, they have the capacity to handle up to 12,000 tons of cargo per month. Cargo Terminals 1 and 2 primarily handle goods intended for export, while Cargo Terminal 3 specializes in import cargo. With its robust cargo-handling capabilities, Manaus Airport ranks as the third-busiest cargo airport in Brazil, following São Paulo-Guarulhos and Campinas.
The airport’s strategic location in Manaus, a major industrial and commercial center in the Amazonas state, contributes to its prominence as a key cargo hub. The transportation of goods through Manaus plays a vital role in the regional and national economy, facilitating trade and export activities.
