Ezeiza Airport Closes Both Runways for Maintenance Today, Affecting 41 Flights

Officials scheduled the works after a technical evaluation to prioritize operational safety.

Overview

  • Runway operations are suspended from 13:55 to 17:40 local time, halting all takeoffs and landings at Argentina’s main international hub.
  • Aeropuertos Argentina is executing immediate, preventive repairs that include milling, removal of deteriorated pavement, application of an asphalt binder, hot‑mix asphalt laying, compaction, and final cleanup.
  • Airlines are reprogramming affected services, with select operations diverted to Aeroparque Jorge Newbery by prior agreement to reduce disruptions.
  • The time window was chosen in coordination with ANAC, the transport ministry, the concessionaire, and carriers as the period of least activity to limit passenger impact.
  • Passengers are advised to check flight status with their airline as schedules adjust during a peak season at a terminal that handled 10.76 million passengers from January to November 2025.
