Teniente Av. Jorge Henrich Arauz Airport (TDD/SLTR) is the main air gateway to Trinidad, the capital of Bolivia's Beni Department, in the Amazon lowlands. It operates mostly domestic flights connecting the region with La Paz, Santa Cruz, and other Bolivian cities. Named for a Bolivian military aviator, it is a key access point for the Bolivian Amazon and the Jesuit mission heritage of the Beni.
💡 Local Tip
Frequent visitors know TDD's schedules can shift due to weather or operational changes, so reconfirm your flight directly with the airline and arrive early for BoA departures; also keep small boliviano bills for taxi or mototaxi fares.
🚖 Getting There
Taxis and mototaxis are the usual way to reach central Trinidad; agree on the fare before leaving or ask your hotel to arrange a transfer. The ride is short, but allow extra time in the rainy season when streets can flood. If you arrive on a late flight, confirm transport in advance because options may be fewer.
