Ustupu-Ogobsucum Airport (IATA: OGM) is an airport serving the island town of Ustupo, Guna Yala province, Panama. It handles short domestic flights and general aviation. The airport is only served by Air Panama[6] by flights every second day.

Information

The Ustupu-Ogobsucum Airport bridges two of the several islands comprised by the town.[7] It is located off the Panamanian coastline, towards the northern, less populated area of the tourist island, about 1 km far away from town centre.[2] There is a scheduled commuter service, offering return flights to Panama City every second day. The island is rather low-lying, and during the monsoon season, often floods, causing flight cancellations.[8]
