Aerodom also explained that the expansion work being carried out includes the modernization of the planters associated with the renovation of the front parking areas of the airport terminal.
“In that order, we are going to reorient the landscaping at the entrance to the airport in accordance with the improvement in vehicle flows and to offer better visibility to the users of the Las Américas International Airport,” indicates the concessionaire.

It is recalled that during the last Christmas period, the 600 parking spaces available to the public at AILA were insufficient due to the demand generated by the exodus of travelers entering and leaving the Dominican Republic, described by the terminal as the “largest in history.”.
The problem forced the company to have to enable extra and free spaces in the green area located in front of the terminal..
The “extraordinary” passenger flow that was recorded at the end of the year caused traffic jams to occur in the passenger pick-up area.
