Copa Libertadores Final 2024: Special Operations at Ezeiza and San Fernando Airports
The Ezeiza International Airport and the San Fernando Airport are the setting for a special operation due to the 2024 Copa Libertadores Final, featuring the Brazilian teams Atlético Mineiro and Botafogo at the “Más Monumental” stadium in Buenos Aires. This event has resulted in a significant increase in both commercial and private air operations, requiring extensive coordination among various organizations.
Since November 28, more than 20,000 Brazilian fans have entered the country through Jorge Newbery Airport, Ezeiza, and San Fernando. According to official data, San Fernando Airport, specialized in general aviation flights, received 46 private aircraft. Meanwhile, Ezeiza International Airport, in an unusual move, handled 27 charter flights and 23 additional private flights.
To manage the increased activity, Ezeiza Airport implemented a special procedure on taxiway DELTA, which was temporarily closed between runway 11-29 and threshold 35 to park additional aircraft.
According to Aeropuertos Argentina, the concessionaire for both airports, this area was equipped with lighting towers and designated spaces for each aircraft. This operation required the collaboration of entities such as the National Civil Aviation Administration (ANAC), the Argentine Air Navigation Company (EANA), the Airport Security Police (PSA), the Regulatory Agency of the National Airport System (ORSNA), Immigration, Customs, and Intercargo.
The taxiway will remain closed until December 2. According to Aeropuertos Argentina 2000, this coordination reinforces their commitment to operational safety and quality in airport management during large-scale events.
