La Aurora International Airport, situated in Guatemala City, serves as a crucial aviation hub for both domestic and international travelers. It is located approximately 6.4 kilometers south of the city center and 25 kilometers from Antigua Guatemala. The airport’s modernization and expansion efforts have significantly improved its capacity, now catering to a larger number of flights and accommodating larger aircraft. La Aurora boasts high-standard facilities, and despite a lack of some upscale amenities, it remains the second busiest airport in Guatemala. The airport encompasses both Central and North terminals to serve its growing passenger traffic.
Currently, La Aurora International Airport ranks as the fourth busiest airport in Central America in terms of passenger movement, only surpassed by airports in Panama, Costa Rica, and El Salvador. Expansion and renovation efforts have been ongoing not just at La Aurora but also at various other airports in Guatemala, including Mundo Maya International Airport, Quetzaltenango Airport, Puerto Barrios Airport, and San José Airport. These initiatives aim to enhance the passenger experience, leading to a significant transformation of the airport. Over the years, numerous improvements have been made, including the addition of new gates, jetway bridges, a parking garage with space for 500 vehicles, ticket counters, and increased gate availability in the northern concourse to cater to larger aircraft.
While La Aurora’s runway measures 2,987 meters, expansion plans include repaving the runway and upgrading the illumination system. The long-term vision is to relocate cargo facilities to other airports, making room for more passenger terminal space and improved taxiways. The airport also houses two exclusive VIP lounges, Los Añejos Business Lounge and Copa Club, catering to passengers flying with Copa Airlines and United Airlines. With its rich history, modernization, and ongoing development, La Aurora International Airport continues to play a significant role in connecting Guatemala to the rest of the world, enhancing the overall travel experience for its visitors.
