About Antonio Maceo International Airport
Overview
Antonio Maceo International Airport serves Santiago, Cuba as a medium-sized airport located at 19.969801, -75.835403 with an elevation of 249 feet MSL. The airport features two asphalted runways: a primary 10/28 runway measuring 13,130 feet and a secondary 19/01 runway measuring 4,593 feet. Its strategic location makes it an important transportation hub for the region.
Flying Conditions
Weather conditions at Antonio Maceo are predominantly favorable for visual flight, with 86.9% of observations showing VFR conditions. The prevailing wind comes from the north at an average of 6.2 knots, with maximum gusts up to 21 knots. Temperature remains consistently warm, averaging 26.5°C with a range between 20°C and 33°C. December, November, and January represent the best months for VFR flying.
Notable Features
Both runways demonstrate excellent wind alignment, with 100% favorable wind conditions for each orientation. The primary 10/28 runway experiences an average crosswind of 5.1 knots, while the 19/01 runway has an even more favorable average crosswind of just 2.6 knots. The airport's substantial primary runway length of 13,130 feet provides significant operational flexibility for various aircraft types.
Approach Considerations
Pilots can expect consistently good visibility, with an average of 10 statute miles and no recorded instances of visibility below 3 miles or fog presence. The north-prevailing winds suggest that runway 10/28 might typically be the preferred approach, though pilots should always confirm current conditions. The long primary runway and stable weather patterns contribute to predictable and straightforward approach and landing scenarios.
