Ezeiza to Close Both Runways Friday Afternoon for Preventive Maintenance Affecting 41 Flights

Officials describe a brief, safety‑focused shutdown coordinated with airlines to limit passenger disruption.

Overview

  • Runway operations at Ezeiza International Airport will pause Friday from 13:55 to 17:40 for scheduled maintenance.
  • Airport operator Aeropuertos Argentina will carry out the works after a technical evaluation to preserve safe operating conditions.
  • Airlines are reprogramming 41 affected services, with some flights relocated to Aeroparque Jorge Newbery to keep schedules moving.
  • Authorities advise travelers to verify flight status with their carriers before heading to the airport.
  • The intervention follows recent operational strains, including a Dec. 27 asphalt detachment and weather and labor disruptions, at a hub that handled 10.76 million passengers across 29 airlines in January–November.
