About José Aponte de la Torre Airport

Overview

José Aponte de la Torre Airport serves Ceiba, Puerto Rico as a medium-sized airport positioned on the island's eastern coastline. Located at 38 feet above mean sea level, the airport provides critical transportation infrastructure for the eastern Puerto Rican region. Its two concrete runways offer significant operational flexibility for various aircraft types.

Flying Conditions

Weather conditions at TJRV are predominantly favorable, with VFR conditions present 93.7% of the time. The airport experiences consistent easterly winds averaging 5.5 knots, with temperatures ranging between 17°C and 31°C. Visibility averages 9.7 statute miles, creating generally excellent visual flying conditions, particularly during November, December, and January.

Notable Features

The airport features two substantial runways: a primary 11,000-foot runway (07/25) and a secondary 5,800-foot runway (18/36). Both runways are constructed of asphalt-concrete, providing durable surface conditions. The airport's coastal location suggests potential maritime wind influences and potential terrain considerations for approach and departure paths.

Approach Considerations

Both runways demonstrate highly favorable wind alignment, with 100% wind compatibility. Runway 07/25 presents minimal crosswind challenges, averaging only 1.6 knots, while Runway 18/36 experiences slightly higher crosswind conditions at 4.7 knots. Pilots can expect consistent wind patterns from the east, facilitating predictable approach and landing scenarios.
