About Rafael Cabrera Airport
Overview
Rafael Cabrera Airport serves Nueva Gerona, located on Cuba's Isla de la Juventud. This medium-sized airport provides critical regional aviation infrastructure with two substantial asphalt runways supporting diverse operational needs.
Flying Conditions
Located at 79 feet above mean sea level, Rafael Cabrera experiences relatively consistent elevation with minimal terrain variation. The airport's geographical position suggests potential maritime wind influences that could impact approach and departure conditions.
Notable Features
The airport features two runways: a longer 8,202-foot runway (05/23) and a secondary 5,325-foot runway (17/35). Both runways are constructed of asphalt, providing reliable surface conditions for multiple aircraft types and operational requirements.
Approach Considerations
Runway orientation allows for flexibility in landing and takeoff procedures, with 05/23 and 17/35 providing options based on prevailing wind conditions. Pilots should carefully assess wind direction and runway length when planning approaches, particularly considering the significant difference in runway lengths.
