Overview
- Ositrán fixed the Jorge Chávez transfer TUUA at US$10.05 for international connections and US$6.32 for domestic connections, with the tariffs in place through December 31, 2030.
- Lima Airport Partners will begin collecting the international transfer fee on December 7 via an online portal, mobile POS agents and on‑site modules after airlines declined to add the charge to tickets.
- Collection for domestic connections remains suspended while negotiations with the Transport Ministry continue, even though the regulator authorized the tariff.
- AETAI and IATA representatives said they will legally challenge the decision and requested a meeting with President José Jerí, arguing the charge raises costs and weakens Lima’s hub role.
- Ositrán defended its methodology and transparency, while airlines questioned unverified investment inputs and noted rival hubs in Bogotá and Panama do not levy a transfer fee and São Paulo’s comparable charge is about US$2.49; airlines also warn the timing coincides with peak travel and extended runway maintenance.
