José Joaquín de Olmedo International Airport

José Joaquín de Olmedo International Airport is an international airport serving Guayaquil, the capital of the Guayas Province and the second most populous city in Ecuador. It is the second busiest airport in Ecuador.

The airport was named after José Joaquín de Olmedo, a notable Ecuadorian poet, first mayor of Guayaquil, and former president of Ecuador. It was changed from Simón Bolívar International Airport, which is currently the name of the airports in Caracas, Venezuela, and Santa Marta, Colombia.

The airport is on the Avenida de las Américas, 5 kilometres north of Guayaquil's centre. The runway length of 2,790 metres includes a 240 metres displaced threshold on Runway 21 and a 100 metres displaced threshold on Runway 03.
