Overview
- CORPAC halted early operations at Alejandro Velasco Astete after dense fog and poor visibility made takeoffs and landings unsafe.
- The airport has reported more than 10 cancellations so far and said it has scheduled up to 50 cancellations for the day as a precaution.
- Airlines are rebooking affected passengers by availability and CORPAC is providing continuous weather updates to crews and carriers.
- Local reporting linked the stormy conditions to a high-altitude isolated depression (DANA), which brought concentrated rain, wind and fog to the region.
- The disruption hits a major gateway for tourists to Machu Picchu and nearby sites and could cause onward delays; travelers should check directly with their airlines for rebooking and status updates.
