Santa Cruz (city, Bolivia) by plane
Viru Viru International Airport (IATA: VVI, ICAO: SLVR) is Bolivia's largest and most modern airport, and a hub for BOA as well as the popular but expensive AeroSur. They offer direct flights from Miami to Santa Cruz a few times a week. They also offer flights from Madrid to Santa Cruz. To get into downtown Santa Cruz from the airport you have two options. The first is to take a taxi that will charge you 55bs (~$8). This is probably the easiest and most comfortable way to get into town, but if you are on a tight budget the second option is a "micro" or mini-bus that waits outside the front doors of the airport until it fills up, the fare for the bus is only 5bs (~$.80).
El Trompillo Airport (IATA: SRZ, ICAO: SLET) is the city's older airport, and is used by military operated TAM airlines for internal flights (to Cochabamba and Sucre, for example) and Aerocon (to Tarija and Trinidad for example). Trompillo is closer to the city center, and is thus a cheaper taxi ride.
