History
The airport was built by the government of the state of Rio de Janeiro in partnership with the Brazilian Air Force. It was inaugurated in 1998 as a facility specialized in cargo transportation.
In September 2007 the first enlargement was completed, including a new terminal and enlargements of the runway and apron.{{Cite web | url=http://odia.terra.com.br/rio/htm/geral_125852.asp | publisher=O Dia Online | title=Lula inaugura amplicação do aeroporto de Cabo Frio nesta tarde | language=Portuguese | date=28 September 2007 | accessdate=2 June 2010 | url-status=dead | archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20110716172407/http://odia.terra.com.br/rio/htm/geral_125852.asp | archivedate=16 July 2011 }}
In June 2010 the second phase of enlargement works was inaugurated, including access roads, enlargement of the cargo terminal, apron, new administration offices and a dedicated terminal for Petrobras to operate flights to its offshore oil platforms of the Campos basin.{{Cite web | url=http://www.panrotas.com.br/noticia-turismo/aviacao/comecam-obras-de-ampliacao-do-aeroporto-de-cabo-frio_58415.html | title=Começam obras de ampliação do aeroporto de Cabo Frio | publisher=Panrotas | date=2 June 2010 | accessdate=2 June 2010 | language=Portuguese}}
