La Nubia Airport (IATA: MZL, ICAO: SKMZ) is an airport servingManizales, Colombia, 8 km (5 mi) southeast of the city’s downtown.

Due to its short runway and limited ramp space, the only aircraftthat can use the airport are turboprop aircraft such as the Fokker 50,ATR 72, and Dash 8. The main problem of La Nubia airport isweather. Sometimes shut down due to fog, rain, or winds, it isdifficult for airlines to offer a reliable schedule for the passengerswishing to visit Manizales and Caldas. Combined with its daylight-onlyhours of operation and limited runway length.

Runway 28 has a 75 meter (246 ft) displaced threshold. TheManizales VOR-DME (Ident: MZL) is located 3.7 nautical miles (6.9 km)west of the runway 10 threshold. The runway has a steep drop-off intoa river valley to the south. There is high terrain north and south ofthe airport.
