No. The airport operates exclusively during daytime hours (approximately between 06:00 and 18:00) and closes completely after the last afternoon flight. Overnight stays are not permitted, making it necessary to arrange lodging in town.
Taxis and local mototaxis (tricimotos) wait outside the terminal building. The trip to downtown takes 5 to 10 minutes. Because vehicles lack meters, fares must be agreed upon with the driver in advance. Some local hotels also coordinate pickups upon request.
No. The terminal has no ATMs, banking branches, or currency exchange desks. Cash transactions and banking services must be handled at financial institutions in downtown Puerto Leguízamo.

Simple stalls provide coffee, cold beverages, and local snacks during operational flight hours. The terminal does not provide an official public Wi-Fi network.
