It was also reported that the air terminal recorded a 29% increase in commercial air operations compared to last year.

For Easter Week they expect to serve 240,000 arriving, departing and connecting passengers, 30% more compared to the same period last year.

CEPA President, Federico Anliker stated that the expansion of the "check in" area is a project that is in line with the increase in passenger demand that El Salvador has been experiencing in recent months.
