Jorge Newbery Airpark (IATA: AEP, ICAO: SABE), commonly known as Aeroparque, is an international airport 2 km (1.2 mi) northwest of downtown Buenos Aires, Argentina.[2] The airport covers an area of 138 hectares (341 acres) and is operated by Aeropuertos Argentina 2000 S.A.[3] It is located along the Río de la Plata, in the Palermo neighbourhood, and serves as the main hub for domestic flights in Argentina and South American destinations.

History

[edit]

The airport was originally proposed by Mayor Carlos Noel in 1925.[4] A number of feasibility studies and zoning disputes followed. In 1938, plans were submitted for an island airport connected via causeway to Avenida General Paz (then under construction).[5] A former wetland reclaimed in 1916 from the Río de la Plata and closer to downtown was selected instead, and the facility, designed by Aeronautics Secretariat engineer Víctor Acuña in 1945, was inaugurated in 1947 as Aeroparque 17 de Octubre (17 October Airfield).[6]

Aeroparque in 1962.

Initially served by a single 1,000 m (3,280 ft 10 in) runway, it began operations in January 1948 as the main hub for domestic flights from Buenos Aires as well as flights to Uruguay. Its first terminal was completed in 1951, by which time the runway was extended to 1,550 m (5,085 ft 4 in).[7] The airport was renamed following the 1955 coup against President Juan Perón in honor of the pioneer of Argentine aviation, Jorge Newbery, and was re-inaugurated in 1960 following work that expanded its main runway to 2,070 m (6,791 ft 4 in), and also added a new terminal.[6] The Argentine Air Force had a small base built near the eastern end of the airport in 1965;[8] at this site, President Isabel Perón was formally deposed by the military in the March 1976 coup.[9] A new terminal for national air carrier Aerolíneas Argentinas was inaugurated in 1981, expanding total terminal area to 30,000 m2 (320,000 sq ft).[7]

Plans to merge Newbery with Ezeiza International Airport in a new facility located on an artificial island were revived in 1996 by a commission headed by Congressman Álvaro Alsogaray, though these plans were ultimately dropped.[5] Its operations, like those of all the nation's public airports, were privatized in 1998 and transferred to Aeropuertos Argentina 2000 (part of the conglomerate owned by local businessman Eduardo Eurnekian).[7] The runway was further extended by 180 m (590 ft 7 in) in 2007,[10] and work began in 2009 to create greater distance between the nearby Rafael Obligado Coast Highway and the eastern end of the runway.[11] Routes were added in March 2010 to destinations in Brazil, Chile, and Paraguay.[12] Work began in 2011 on Terminals III and IV, totaling 35,000 m2 (380,000 sq ft).[13] These terminals were inaugurated in March 2014, effectively doubling the airport's passenger capacity.[14] A recent increase in the number of airlines and flights operating at the airport has brought it to the limit of its capacity. Thus, the government decided to move all international flights (with the exception of those to Uruguay) to Ezeiza Airport from 2019. An expansion of the runway was completed during the COVID-19 pandemic in order to accommodate wide-body aircraft, such as the Airbus A330.[15] In a push to connect tourists with domestic flights at the airport, the government allowed international flights to recommence.[citation needed]
