Jorge Chávez International Airport is gearing up for a busy holiday season, with the new terminal set to open on December 18. However, the situation surrounding the airport is dire, with escalating traffic and safety issues due to a lack of preparedness and necessary infrastructure improvements by the Ministry of Transport and Communications. Despite being classified as a world-class airport, the current conditions fall short of expectations, highlighting a disconnect between the anticipated modernization and the on-ground reality. The new access road via Morales Duárez Avenue is expected to significantly increase traffic, further complicating the transit for arriving and departing travelers. With constant chaos at the airport’s entry and exit points, drivers are faced with lengthy wait times and unsafe conditions. Authorities have announced future interventions on access routes, but uncertainty remains as the opening date approaches. There are reports of threats and inadequate safety measures, creating a discouraging environment for travelers. Without proper preparation, the opening of the new terminal could be chaotic, making it imperative for authorities to address these persistent issues quickly.
