Ecuador: Quito's Mariscal Sucre International Airport to temporarily suspend operations Sept. 21

Authorities have announced the suspension of all flights from 02:00-12:00 Sept. 21 at the Mariscal Sucre International Airport (UIO) to conduct preventative runway maintenance work. While the passenger terminal will remain open during this time, all 34 flights previously scheduled to depart from or arrive at UIO during the suspension have been rescheduled. Airport authorities recommend travelers contact the airline directly for additional flight information.

Lingering flight disruptions are likely even after operations resume as airlines work to clear the backlog of flights.
