Carrier plans to lease 18 new aircraft as part of fleet modernization and market repositioning

Delivery of aircraft LV-KNP marks the second new jet received by the state-owned company in 2025

Decision allows new routes and increased frequencies at airports in Brasília, Rio de Janeiro, Salvador, Curitiba and Florianópolis

Since it was renationalized in 2008, the carrier has been counting on government assistance to balance its books

A deal was announced in October 2023 by the previous administration, during the government of President Alberto Fernández. His successor, Javier Milei, intends to privatize the carrier

Milei administration has cut 13% of its workforce, reduced routes and other services to make the airline more attractive, according to a report

The Javier Milei government intends to speed up the sale process of the state-owned carrier, which has already consumed US$8 billion since its nationalization

Carriers will include flights between Buenos Aires and Bogotá in agreement starting in April

Argentina's new representative will take office on December 10 and the carrier will be privatized again. Future order for E195-E2 jets remains undefined

State-owned airline signed Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) to "strengthen collaboration and explore opportunities" in commercial, operational and technology areas
