Scheduled closures of Quito airport for preventive maintenance
Corporación Quiport, concessionaire of Quito International Airport, informs our passengers, users and the general public that, due to preventive maintenance work on the runway, air operations will be suspended on the following dates:
• Saturdays April 5th and 12th
• Saturdays May 10th, 17th and 31st
• Saturdays June 7th, 14th, 21st and 28th
• Saturdays September 6th, 13th and 20th
Closing hours will be from 02:00 to 14:00.
Saturdays have been chosen to carry out preventive maintenance work because they are the days when there are fewer air operations. No runway closures have been planned for the months of July and August so as not to affect the peak summer season. These works are essential to ensure the safety and efficiency of air operations and prevent unforeseen closures for emergency corrective maintenance.
The closure schedule has been coordinated and authorized by the Directorate General of Civil Aviation (DGAC). Likewise, the airlines that operate at the airport have been notified through the respective NOTAM* issued by the DGAC, which is the official communication of universal character for those involved in the aviation activity.
Although any changes in itineraries, rescheduling or cancellations will be promptly reported by the airlines, we recommend that passengers with flights scheduled on these dates contact their airline directly for updated information. Contacts are available at: https://www.aeropuertoquito.aero/aerolineas/.
We appreciate your understanding and regret any inconvenience that these works may cause. Their completion is essential to keep the airport infrastructure in optimal conditions.
*The NOTAM published refers to the months of April, May and June. The NOTAM for September closures will be published within three months prior to the closing date as required by the regulations.
