About Itaituba Airport

Itaituba Airport, operating under IATA code ITB and ICAO code SNIB, is a regional domestic facility managed under Brazil’s national airport infrastructure framework and serving the western Pará interior. The airport has historically supported the aviation needs of the gold mining industry that defines much of Itaituba’s economy, handling turboprop and light-to-midsize jet traffic regularly. Its single asphalt runway measures approximately 1,600 metres, making it well suited to turboprops and light jets, while midsize jets may operate subject to payload and fuel considerations. The terminal is modest but functional, with customs and immigration handled through the federal police and Receita Federal for international arrivals on a pre-coordinated basis. The airport’s location in the Amazon basin requires pilots to hold appropriate ratings and operators to plan carefully around seasonal weather patterns and fuel availability.
