MGA is the less busy airport among Central American capital cities. In addition to the usual Avianca, Aeromexico and Copa, local specialties include Conviasa flights from Venezuela and rare flights by the local company La Costeña. There are no good spots around the airport, so you can look for an opportunity to take a few shots on the airport access road.
