Cusco's Teniente Alejandro Velasco Astete Airport has extended its flight arrival and departure schedule. Since December 1 commercial flight operations run from 4:00 a.m. to 2:00 a.m. the following day.

The agreement was signed by Corpac's General Manager Jose Rubio and Latam's Senior Corporate Affairs manager Monica Obando during a meeting held at Corpac's headquarters in Callao region.
