Passenger Alert – Check Flight Status Before Coming to the Airport

Operational Update

Following today’s flight disruptions, airport operations are expected to resume normally tomorrow, Sunday, January 4.

Passengers with confirmed scheduled flights are advised to arrive on time. Passenger flow control measures remain in effect, and the airport may be busier than usual as today’s cancellations are accommodated in close coordination with airline partners and airport authorities, in a safe and secure manner.

Passengers whose flights were cancelled today, as well as travelers without a confirmed flight, are strongly advised not to come to the airport and to contact their airline directly for rebooking and travel arrangements.

Passengers are encouraged to check directly with their airline and visit https://www.airportaruba.com/live-departure-times for the most up-to-date flight information before traveling to the airport.
