Carlos Concha Torres International Airport

Carlos Concha Torres International Airport (SETN) is a medium airport in Tachina, Ecuador. Pilots and dispatchers reference it by ICAO code SETN or IATA code ESM. It sits in South America.

Carlos Concha Torres International Airport is a regional commercial airport that doubles as a busy private-aviation base. Operators benefit from full instrument approaches and an FBO infrastructure scaled for regular jet traffic, often without the congestion of the nearest major hub.

Carlos Concha Torres International Airport sits near sea level at 32 ft.

Local operations run on America/Guayaquil. Scheduled airline service is light enough that it rarely interferes with charter movements, though planners should still expect to coordinate with the handling agent for international turnarounds.
