Jorge Wilstermann International Airport (Spanish: Aeropuerto Internacional Jorge Wilstermann, IATA: CBB, ICAO: SLCB) is a high elevation international airport serving Cochabamba, the capital of the Cochabamba Department of Bolivia. The facility is named after Jorge Wilstermann, an early Bolivian commercial aviator. The airport used to be the main base of operations for Bolivia's former flag carrier Lloyd Aéreo Boliviano and currently serves as the main domestic hub for Boliviana de Aviación due to its geographical location at the center of Bolivia.
History
SABSA has been substituted in March 2022 by the newly established government agency Navegación Aérea y Aeropuertos Bolivianos (NAABOL). This state-owned agency now manages the airports in Bolivia. [4]
