In this sense, ACI-LAC congratulates the Uruguayan government for the initiative as it represents a significant step towards greater connectivity and operational efficiency for the country.

Dr. Rafael Echevarne, General Director of ACI-LAC, highlights: "The investment that will be made by Aeropuertos Uruguay, of the Corporación América Airports group, reflects the firm commitment of the company to the airport development of Uruguay. The investment in airport infrastructure "It will not only improve the operational efficiency of the airport, but also boosts the economic growth and competitiveness of Uruguay in the international arena."

The ILS CAT IIIb instrument landing system is similar to that used in airports in the main capitals of the world. It will elevate the category of the airport and, above all, will have a very positive impact on connectivity and the aeronautical industry. This system allows aircraft to land in adverse weather conditions and therefore its installation will result in improved connectivity, greater predictability for airlines and a competitive advantage for the development of aviation.

In addition to the new ILS system, Aeropuertos Uruguay received the extension of the management of the Punta del Este International Airport, assuming the commitment to make investments both in that and other air terminals, and to transform the old passenger terminal of the Carrasco Airport into a logistics center.

ACI-LAC reaffirms its commitment to strengthening airport infrastructure in the region and celebrates the initiatives that promote connectivity and economic development in Uruguay.
