Corazón de Jesús Airstrip (CZJ)

9° 26.8′ N · 78° 34.5′ W

A 560 m asphalt strip on Corazón de Jesús, approached over the water at both ends, that links the central San Blas to Panama City by light aircraft and is the handiest crew-change point east of Cartí.

Practical

Position from Wikipedia's Corazón de Jesús Airport article (IATA CZJ, runway 09/27, 560 m / 1,837 ft asphalt). Wikivoyage lists Corazón de Jesús among destinations served by charter flights such as Blue Skies Panama; scheduled service changes, so check current airlines before booking crew. Crew walk across the bridge to Nargana and are picked up by dinghy from the Nargana anchorage (see Río Diablo / Nargana Anchorage). Flying in avoids the long Cartí road drive. Light-aircraft luggage limits are tight: pack soft bags.
