Uberlândia–Ten. Cel. Av. César Bombonato Airport (IATA: UDI, ICAO: SBUL) is the airport serving Uberlândia, Brazil. Since 2001 the airport is named after the Uberlândia-born pilot of the Brazilian Air Force César Bombonato (1955-1998), who died in an air crash.

The first flight to the site of the airport was operated on May 10, 1935 but the area was officially designated only on July 21, 1953.
In 1980, the administration of the airport was taken over by Infraero and on June 8, 2001 the name was officially changed to include a tribute to the aviator César Bombonato.
