Aerovías DAPDAP

Aerovías DAP is a Chilean regional airline founded in 1980 and headquartered in Punta Arenas, operating as a vital air service provider for southern Patagonia and remote regions of Chile. The airline specializes in passenger and cargo operations, serving communities across the Magallanes Region and connecting to destinations in Antarctica and Tierra del Fuego where alternative transportation is limited or impractical. Operating primarily from Punta Arenas International Airport (Carlos Ibáñez del Campo Airport), DAP provides essential regional connectivity for passengers, government agencies, and logistics operations in one of the world's most isolated regions. The airline operates a small fleet suited to the challenging weather and runway conditions of southern Chile, making it a crucial lifeline for remote settlements and scientific research operations in Patagonia.
