About

Daular International Airport is a proposed development project for the Ecuadorian city of Guayaquil. It is intended that the new airport will replace the current Jose Joaquin de Olmedo Airport upon its completion. The airport is to be located in the Daular (Duale) canton, with construction expected to commence in 2018. The project is forecast to be completed by 2024, to coincide with the time that the existing Jose Joaquin de Olmedo Airport is expected to reach capacity. The airport will be constructed on a 2020ha plot and will feature two runways and a terminal building with 36 aerobridges.


Jul-2018. Guayaquil Daular International Airport is scheduled to be inaugurated in 2024. The airport's Phase I construction includes two parallel runways 4100m and 2500m and the terminal will feature 36 aerobridges.

Aug-2017. Ecuador DGAC (Directorate General of Civil Aviation) announced it is holding meetings with Guayaquil Airport Authority and MITRE to discuss the construction of New Guayaquil Airport. 

Mar-2017. Ecuador's Autoridad Aeroportuaria de Guayaquil (Guayaquil airport authority) selected ASOPLAN for a contract for the study and conceptual design of the new Guayaquil Jose Joaquin de Olmedo Airport. 

Jan-2015. Guayaquil Airport Authority manager Nicolas Romero Sangster said construction of the future Daular International Airport, which is slated to replace Guayaquil Jose Joaquin de Olmedo Airport, should commence within the next three years. Romero said the original plan was to start construction in 2021 or 2022 but said: “the idea is to start building in 2018 to have it in 2022.”

Aug-2014. The Ecuadorean Government received for bids to complete studies on a new highway to the future airport. The highway will span 25km-40km and the environmental impact of the construction will be a determining factor in the winning bid, according to the airport's operator Airport Foundation of Guayaquil GM, Nicolás Romero.

Jul-2014. Jose Joaquin de Olmedo Airport may or may not be shut down once Daular Intl Airport is complete in 2024, according to Guayaquil's Mayor Jaime Nebot. It is possible the existing airport will be complementary to Daular, as in other cities.
