In a bid to drive international collaboration, Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport (ATL) has signed a sister airport agreement with CEPA (La Comisión Ejecutiva Portuaria Autónoma/ the Executive and Autonomous Port Commission). CEPA is the administrator and operator of El Salvador International Airport San Óscar Arnulfo Romero y Galdámez (SAL). This agreement is designed to promote collaboration in operational best practices, passenger service, and air cargo management between the two international hubs.
“The signing of this sister airport agreement is a strategic alliance that will drive innovation, strengthen security, and expand economic opportunities for both airports,” said Jan Lennon, interim general manager of Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport.
“Strengthening air service connectivity between our airports will drive trade, tourism, and investment, fostering new business opportunities that benefit both of our regions,” she said. “By working together, we are enhancing aviation, creating opportunities, shaping careers, and building a future where our airports continue to thrive.”
The signing took place during a two-day workshop organised by the United Nations Institute for Training and Research (UNITAR). The Airports and Economic Development Global Training Programme “Future-Proofing Airport Development” highlighted technological innovations, artificial intelligence (AI), and cybersecurity. The event occurred through a strategic partnership with Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport (ATL) and Georgia Institute of Technology aimed at empowering airport and aviation leaders to future-proof their operations and strengthen institutional resilience.
This agreement is ATL’s 12th sister airport partnership.
This is ATL’s second agreement with CEPA since 2016
