Diego Jiménez Torres Airport serves Fajardo, PR.
Diego Jiménez Torres Airport (FAA LID: X95), also known as Fajardo Airport, permanently closed on April 30, 2015. The Puerto Rico Ports Authority (PRPA) informed the FAA of the closure, noting that the useful life of federally funded improvements had expired in 2013 and they were no longer contractually obligated to operate it. Airport operations had previously been transferred to the José Aponte de la Torre Airport in Ceiba in November 2008.
The airport was a small, 94-acre, non-towered general aviation airport. It featured a single asphalt-paved runway, 8/26, measuring 3,600 by 75 feet. The site of the former airport was sold by the Puerto Rico Ports Authority for over $1.2 million, with the transaction finalized at the end of the last four-year period (prior to February 2025). The PRPA is currently seeking proposals for the purchase and sale of two parcels of land in Fajardo, including the former Diego Jiménez Torres Airport property, for development.
