Manta Airport

Exciting things are happening in Manta these days! Not only is the current mayor implementing many programs around the city for clean up and beautification,  but the airport has finally been finished.

Here our President touring the facility.  It is well on it's way to becoming an international airport,  and THAT is very exciting news! We wait...

Last I heard, it still needed furniture, and the agreement with the vendors was being finalized. It's come a long way since before the earthquake in 2016. For those who dont know, the old airport building had been a US Air force outpost and collapsed in the earthquake.  Then for a couple years it was nothing more than some tents and tarps. Wow, all grown up!

We now anxiously await the news of international flights. Fingers crossed...and stay tuned, the adventure continues!
