[UIO] Quito, Mariscal Sucre International Airport
The
new
Mariscal Sucre International Airport Quito (code UIO),
is Ecuador's busiest airport and
an important airport for connections to other
destinations in South America. Opened in February 2013,
is located on the Oyambaro plain near the town
of Tababela at a distance of about 18 km or 11 mi east
from Quito.
The new airport replaces the old one in the North of
capital
Quito, which - surrounded by residential neighborhoods
- will be converted into a city park. The new
state-of-the-art facility, both terms of design and its
air navigation systems, CAN handle over 5m
passengers per year and the runway is long enough to
accommodate the landing of an Airbus A380, the world’s
biggest passenger aircraft. Quito handles more than two
thirds of Ecuador’s international traffic, and is ready
to expand its connections to all capitals of South
America.

then, airport traffic goes by 2 different 4 lane highways, one of which crosses
the now finished bridge in the background.
