At Corporación Quiport, we are proud to present to Quito and to Ecuador the most significant expansion project in the recent history of our airport infrastructure: the 2025 expansion of Mariscal Sucre International Airport. This project—driven by vision, resilience, and an unwavering commitment to excellence—opens a new chapter for the country’s air connectivity. The project began in 2019 and, like many initiatives around the world, was paused during the pandemic. We resumed its construction in 2024, firmly convinced that recovery must go hand in hand with growth. Today, with an investment of USD 74.2 million, we are expanding the airport’s capacity from 5 to more than 7 million passengers per year and strengthening all key processes to deliver a superior experience for our users.
