Villa Dolores Airport (VDR/SAOD) is a small regional airfield serving Villa Dolores and the Traslasierra Valley in Córdoba Province, Argentina.

💡 Local Tip
Frequent visitors know to call ahead to confirm fuel availability and airport operating hours, especially on weekends or holidays, since staffing and services can be limited at this regional field.
