Natal Airport was built by Inframerica and later opened on May 31, 2014. The air terminal was the first in the country to be granted to the private sector, when the airport concession rounds began in Brazil.
The airport is located 33km from the center of Natal and has a 3,000m x 60m runway and is configured as category F, capable of supporting the operation of the Airbus A380.
Inframerica began managing the Terminal in 2012, with a 28-year concession period. Located in the metropolitan region of Natal, in São Gonçalo do Amarante (RN), the airport has the capacity to receive 6 million passengers per year, has 8 boarding bridges and operates national and international flights.
As of 00:01 on February 19, 2024, Zurich Airport Brasil became the new operator of Natal International Airport, in São Gonçalo do Amarante. To celebrate this moment, the concessionaire received the first landing, following taking over the operation, with the traditional baptism of the aircraft with water jets and carried out a special action with the delivery of gifts to the passengers of the inaugural flight.
In the followingnoon, the official ceremony took place to transfer operational responsibility from Inframerica Aeroportos to Zurich Airport International, winner of the re-bidding auction and which now transfers to the group company, Zurich Airport Brasil, the mission of operating the airport for the next 30 years.
For the first months of operation, Zurich Airport Brasil plans to invest around R$3 million in improvements to infrastructure, security, commercial area and passenger experience. Furthermore, a new parking price is now in force – with a reduction of around 30% in the daily rate, from R$56 to R$39.00 for the first night. The contract for the airport’s first VIP lounge has already been signed and it will operate domestically and internationally.
One of the main requests from passengers will already be met by the new operator: with R$1.5 million allocated, the concessionaire will implement improvements to the air conditioning system at the airport. There is also a cleaning and restoration project in all areas of the terminal, which began last weekend and should last around 2 months. Another new feature now available is the free and unlimited internet service, which allows passengers to remain online 24 hours a day.
The total investment planned for the next 5 years is R$50 million.
In Latin America, the Swiss group is present in 5 operations in Brazil: it has 100% of the concession of the airports of Natal, Florianópolis, Vitória and Macaé and is the operator of BH Airport, where it makes investments in partnership with Infraero and CCR Aeroportos. Furthermore, it is the operator of Bogotá Airport, in Colombia, and holds 100% of the concessions for 2 airports in Chile – Iquique and Antofagasta. In the Caribbean, it is the operator of Curaçao Airport, where it has partnerships with CCR Aeroportos and Janssen de Jong Caribbean Airport.

After 20 years in operation, the iconic website “Ears!” announced this Monday that by the end of the month it will have stopped working.
The news was given on the same page, in a publication they explained that “the reasons are as simple as they are difficult to accept. With the change in trends in recent years regarding social networks, taringa! designed a product that sought what other platforms might not achieve, a space of freedom where content might be monetized. However, due to market conditions and the competitiveness of social media, this dream has been thwarted.”
“Later we will give you more details regarding how this process will take place and what you need to know. I’m keeping the bardo I have inside, I’ll take it out later,” they added.
The Argentine forum website, popular like few others in times before the massification of social networks, became the third most used website in Latin America, Clarín recalls. In it, tutorials, advice, recipes, news were disseminated, and even – causing controversy due to potential infringements of copyright – movies, series, video games and music.
“They can call us virgos, acidic, unbearable, antisocial and whatever they want. But we have made history and no one can ever deny that to us,” they defended, however, in their statement from Taringa!.
Thus, they closed by expressing that “thank you for everything, taringueros. What we achieved together in these 20 years will remain in the history of the internet forever.”

Rosario is considered the most dangerous city in Argentina, with a homicide rate of 22 per 100,000 inhabitants, five times the national rate (4.2), also one of the lowest in Latin America.
The Argentine government promised this Monday March 11 a “police saturation” plan and a special “anti-mafia” type law to fight crime in Rosario, the country’s third city, following a recent wave of murders and threats linked to local drug trafficking.
In a slow-moving city on Monday, without taxis or buses and with schools closed, Security Minister Patricia Bullrich clarified at a press conference the announcement made the day before of the sending of federal forces – 450 men – so that Rosario ( 1.3 million inhabitants) does not become a “land of narco-terrorists”.
Patricia Bullrich also announced the upcoming sending to Parliament of an “anti-gang” law, targeting an association offense, “a new type of criminal prosecution, by which the crimes of these gangs are attributed to any of its members, as did the anti-mafia penal code in Italy”.
Rosario, a crucial gateway for grain exports, but also for drugs from neighboring countries (Bolivia, Brazil, Paraguay), is not prey to significant drug trafficking, but to the coexistence of multiple small gangs, and frequent shootings. , to intimidate a rival gang or for the purposes of extortion.
A recent wave saw four murders in five days – two taxi drivers, one bus driver and a gas station worker – which authorities analyze as a “reaction” by imprisoned gang leaders once morest a recent tightening of their detention conditions.
The governor of the province (Sante Fe) for three months, Maximiliano Pullaro, has communicated extensively in recent weeks regarding his campaign once morest gangs and their leaders in prison, with images of detainees under harsh restraint, like the Salvadoran president Nayib Bukele.
The recent series of murders, and threats to kill “other innocent people”, while demanding “rights for detainees”, have led school principals to suspend face-to-face classes since Monday.
Patricia Bullrich also announced that she will ask the courts for the possibility of invoking the anti-terrorism law during proceedings once morest the Rosario gangs, so that “any action aimed at intimidating the population is punishable by double punishment”.
