Cayenne – Félix Eboué Airport

Cayenne – Félix Eboué Airport (SOCA) is a large airport in Matoury, French Guiana. Pilots and dispatchers reference it by ICAO code SOCA or IATA code CAY. It sits in South America.

Cayenne – Félix Eboué Airport is a commercial-airline hub that also handles a steady stream of private and corporate traffic. Mixed commercial and private operations mean planners should expect slot coordination, handling agent involvement, and the usual international hub procedures.

Cayenne – Félix Eboué Airport sits near sea level at 26 ft.

Local operations run on America/Cayenne. Because the field hosts scheduled airline operations, private operators should expect a defined slot environment, possible CDM coordination at peak banks, and limited ramp availability during major event weekends. Booking FBO ramp space in advance is normal practice.

SkyAccess inventory for SOCA updates continuously as operators publish new empty legs and one-way repositioning trips. Pricing on each leg is available with a free account, and an inventory alert will email you the moment a leg appears on the route you care about.

As one of the larger fields in French Guiana, SOCA tends to be the natural choice for long-range international charters and crew-rest-required flights.

Cayenne – Félix Éboué Airport is French Guiana's main international airport. It is located near the commune of Matoury, 13 kilometres (8 mi) southwest of French Guiana's capital city of Cayenne. It is managed by the Chamber of Commerce and Industry of French Guiana.
