Aeropuertos Argentina announced a $1.5 billion investment programme to run from 2027 to 2031 aimed at upgrading airport infrastructure across the country, including a new 35,000 m² international arrivals terminal at Ezeiza with a 10,000 m² domestic terminal, a 15,000 m² international jetway with six gates, and a $200 million expansion of Aeroparque’s national boarding terminal and international sector.
The plan also allocates $16 million for a 1,750 m² expansion at Bariloche Airport, adding new dining, restroom and pre‑boarding areas and enabling six simultaneous flights, two of which can be international, while a separate federal component covers 33 interior airports such as Catamarca, Córdoba, Esquel and Iguazú. In Esquel, a municipal land cession for a modernisation project was revived, featuring a 7,000 m² parking area with 183 spaces, although the additional $600 million investment earmarked for Ezeiza and Córdoba does not extend to Esquel.
The concession for Aeropuertos Argentina 2000 has been extended to 2049 with a possible further extension to 2056, providing the framework for the long‑term investment commitments.
