Since Monday 28 February, international flights have been transferred to the new terminal at Santiago de Chile airport. Chilean President Sebasti\u00e1n Pi\u00f1era inaugurated a new international terminal at Santiago’s Arturo Merino Ben\u00edtez Airport, the country’s largest, on Saturday after months of delay and a billion-dollar investment. Operator Nuevo Pudahuel is requesting an extension of the concession due to the pandemic-related revenue freeze and government travel restrictions, which are still in effect today.<\/p>\n

“The new facilities provide a new gateway to foreign countries and increase the airport’s capacity from 13 to 38 million passengers per year,” said Chilean President Sebasti\u00e1n Pi\u00f1era – who will leave office on 11 March – at the inauguration of the new international terminal at Santiago International Airport.<\/p>\n

The new facilities represent an investment of one billion dollars, with four new walkways, 45 boarding gates, 96 check-in stations and a total of 66 additional border control booths.<\/p>\n

“We are helping to make commercial aviation easier to use, more economical and open up air travel to more people,” said President Pi\u00f1era.<\/p>\n

In addition, almost 7,000 additional parking spaces, an amphitheatre for 250 people and an exhibition centre will be put into operation.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

According to information provided by the airport authorities, 13 airlines have already moved their operations to the new terminal: Aerol\u00edneas Argentinas, Air Canada, Iberia, KLM-AirFrance, JetSmart, United Airlines, Aeromexico, American Airlines, Avianca, British Airways, Copa Airlines and Sky Airline and finally LATAM and Delta Air Lines.<\/p>\n
