Uribe Airport (IATA: URI, ICAO:SKUB) is located in the the city of La Uribe, Colombia.
Uribe Airport (URI) Air Freight Overview
Uribe Airport, identified by ICAO code SKUB, is located in La Uribe, Colombia, at approximately 3.2170° N and 74.4000° W. It is a small local aerodrome serving a remote area of Meta rather than an established international cargo gateway. The supplied airport record shows no listed scheduled passenger or express services, so international freight should not be planned as a direct, routine airport movement without prior confirmation from the operating authority, an approved local handling party and the carrier or charter operator. Our service team can assess whether a nearby Colombian gateway, road feeder movement or dedicated charter is more suitable for the shipment.

Local-access airport
Its practical value is primarily regional access to La Uribe and surrounding communities, not regular international consolidation.
No routine uplift assumed
The airport record lists zero air and express services; our team will seek written operating and handling confirmation before accepting an airport-specific plan.
Gateway dependency
Export and import cargo will generally require an established Colombian gateway, onward surface transport or a specifically arranged charter solution.
Remote-area planning
Road access, security, weather, aircraft suitability and local handling arrangements can materially affect the final delivery plan.
Cargo Facilities & Services
- Do not assume the presence of a public cargo terminal, bonded warehouse, cold room, dangerous-goods store, automated sorting system or customs inspection facility at Uribe Airport. These capabilities must be confirmed with the operator before booking.
- For ordinary commercial freight, our service team will normally evaluate delivery to an established Colombian cargo gateway first, followed by a controlled road feeder or local collection arrangement.
- Perishable, pharmaceutical, frozen, dangerous or high-value shipments require written confirmation of temporary storage, security controls, equipment, acceptance hours and handover responsibility.
- Where a charter or special flight is considered, aircraft type, payload, runway suitability, ground support, fuel availability and local permits must be validated by the operator and relevant authorities.
- Customs-controlled cargo should remain within an authorised customs process at the selected gateway unless the local authority confirms an alternative procedure in writing.
Likely connection model
International consignments are normally assessed through a Colombian gateway with established airline, cargo-terminal and customs infrastructure, then moved toward La Uribe by road or an individually arranged local flight.
Airline and charter confirmation
No carrier, flight frequency or direct cargo route should be presumed for Uribe Airport. Our team will verify operating status, aircraft acceptance and handling responsibility for the requested movement.
Transit-time variables
Actual timing depends on gateway capacity, customs release, road conditions, security arrangements, weather, aircraft availability and the acceptance window at the final destination.
Routing discipline
We provide a confirmed routing only after checking the shipper’s cargo profile, final delivery point, Incoterms, customs requirements and the availability of a reliable last-mile handover.
Hinterland & Key Cargo
- The immediate service area is La Uribe and remote communities in the surrounding Meta region; the commercial catchment should be confirmed from the actual shipper and consignee address rather than inferred from the airport name.
- Potential demand is more consistent with time-sensitive community supplies, project materials, urgent spare parts, humanitarian consignments and limited regional commerce than with high-volume scheduled air cargo.
- Temperature-sensitive products, live animals, dangerous goods and oversized freight require a separate feasibility review because local acceptance, storage and recovery resources may be limited.
- For routine consumer, industrial or export cargo, our service team will compare gateway air freight, road feeder transport and charter options against shipment urgency and total landed cost.
Operations & Compliance
- Acceptance timing: A standard published cut-off should not be assumed. Obtain the confirmed acceptance time, aircraft arrival window, loading point and local contact before dispatching cargo.
- Dangerous goods: Lithium batteries, chemicals, fuel-related items, aerosols and other regulated articles require correct classification, packing, marking, labelling and shipper documentation under the applicable carrier and Colombian requirements.
- Temperature control and live cargo: Confirm the availability of protected handover, storage and monitoring before tendering pharmaceuticals, perishables or live animals; packaging alone does not establish a temperature-controlled chain.
- Customs and delivery: Commercial invoices, packing lists, transport documents, permits and consignee details must match the final routing. Customs examination, security screening and local road delivery may add time and handling requirements.
Shipping Tips from Our Service Team
- Send us the commodity, dimensions, gross weight, package count, value, Incoterms, origin, final delivery address and required delivery date before requesting an airport-specific quotation.
- Use robust, weather-resistant packaging suitable for multiple handovers and possible road transfer. Mark each piece clearly and provide gross and net weights that can be verified at acceptance.
- For urgent cargo, request two plans: a confirmed gateway-plus-road solution and a special-flight or charter assessment. This avoids committing cargo to an unverified local airport movement.
- Do not dispatch freight to La Uribe until our team has confirmed the consignee, receiving point, local contact, customs route, security arrangements and final-mile vehicle access.
Direct international acceptance should not be assumed. Our team must first verify operating status, customs arrangements, carrier or charter availability, ground handling and aircraft suitability.
A routine express service is not indicated in the supplied airport record. We will check the express operator’s serviceable-point list and, where necessary, quote a gateway transfer to La Uribe.
The fastest option depends on stock location, gateway uplift, customs release, road conditions and local receiving capacity. We will compare an established-gateway solution with a charter assessment rather than promise a fixed transit time.
Only after commodity classification, packaging review, carrier acceptance and local handling confirmation. Safety Data Sheets, battery test documentation and the applicable dangerous-goods declaration may be required.
Only when protected handover, suitable storage and a responsible monitoring party are confirmed for every segment. Otherwise, our team will recommend a controlled gateway route or a dedicated solution.
Data Sources & Provenance
Airport identifiers, name, location, coordinates, country, city and time zone in this module are based on the supplied airport record for Uribe Airport. Operational assumptions are intentionally limited: no runway dimensions, cargo-terminal capacity, warehouse area, customs facility, airline schedule, throughput figure, cut-off time or transit-time promise is presented without airport-specific verification.
For regulatory and operational validation, our service team uses the competent Colombian civil aviation authority and customs authority as applicable:
- aerocivil.gov.co — Colombian civil aviation authority domain for aviation and aerodrome-related verification.
- dian.gov.co — Colombian customs and tax authority domain for customs-related verification.
Final acceptance, customs treatment, handling arrangements, aircraft operations and delivery timing remain subject to written confirmation from the relevant operator, carrier, authorities and consignee.
