At a press conference, the president of the Council of Ministers, Gustavo Adrianzen, said that although the Government The goal is to open the new Jorge Chávez airport on March, if there are no 100%security conditions, it will have to be postponed for the third time.
“Until all security systems include fire systems are absolutely certified, and while there is a minimum of safety risk margin, we are not going to inaugurate the airport. For us it is essential to grant each of the passengers of the Jorge Chávez The workers are already 100%security, “he said.
The Premier explained that there is a problem with the fuel station. Unlike Current Air Terminal Jorge Chavezwhere there is a cistern that carries gasoline to each of the airplanes, the modern airport has an underground sleeve subsystem. “This demands extremely specific supervision and control activities. These tests that have to be carried out are not yet done in their integrity,” he emphasized.
Aetai asks to postpone inauguration
Earlier, Carlos Gutiérrez, general manager of Aetai (International Air Transport Companies Association), it was in favor of the new air terminal being postponed in case the integral operation is not guaranteed.
“Yes it would have to be postponed. A date I cannot give. What is very clear is that this is not guaranteed the operation at all levels at 100%, it will have to postpone. We have not only said it, but the Premier itself. That is, if the safety operational conditions are not guaranteed, the airport will have to postpone the time it is until they are remedied the observations that may arise,” he warned in Channel N.
Gutierrez emphasized that it is a bad planning, since from the beginning, LAP as a concessionaire announced that it was going to be inaugurated on December 18. “We as an industry stated that the date was not the most correct. Time has proved us right. It was postponed on January 29, they have not complied with the delivery of the terminal and this is ratified by Ositran,” he said.
Recall that the Ministry of Transport and Communications, through the General Directorate of Transport Programs and Projects, and Lima Airport Partners (LAP) signed an agreement act that ratifies March 30 as the date for the start of operations of the Jorge Chávez International Airport.
