History

Corporación América Airports began in 1998 when it acquired the concession rights to operate 33 airports in Argentina. It has since expanded geographically and currently operates 52 airports globally, in Latin America as well as in Armenia and Italy. The company acquired most of its airport concessions through a public tender process and generally improved infrastructure significantly through large capital investments. In January 2026, its subsidiary Armenia International Airports CJSC entered into an amendment agreement with the Government of the Republic of Armenia to amend certain terms of the existing concession agreement originally signed on December 17, 2001; the concession term was extended by 35 years through December 31, 2067, and AIA is to submit a new Master Plan by January 31, 2026, including a capital investment program of $425 million to be executed by 2033. In January 2026, the company also announced an amendment of the Seymour Airport Concession Agreement in Galápagos, Ecuador, extending the contract term by 6 years through December 2032. In April 2026, TUMO's first educational center in Uruguay was inaugurated at Carrasco International Airport, with construction involving a USD 10 million investment by Corporación América Airports.
