Aerolineas Argentinas has nearly recovered enough to match 2019 traffic levels, both globally and in Italy.
From 5 to 6 weekly flights in June 2024
Claudio Neri, Italy general manager of the airline, explains: “In the period January-September 2023 we transported 69,443 passengers on the Italian market, a figure which represents a recovery of 56% (compared to 2019 figures), with an occupancy of 87% which is a percentage point more than 2019. The progression is constant as demonstrated by the numbers for September alone, with 11,443 passengers, equal to a recovery of 74% on the same month in 2019 and a 97% occupancy.
” In the wake of this positive performance, "an increase in frequencies on the Rome-Buenos Aires route is planned, from June 2024 they will rise from the current five to six weekly flights."
“The objective for the end of 2023 is 3,000,000 passengers”
"MICE traffic is also showing positive signs; we already have groups booked for the first months of 2024." Aerolineas Argentinas guarantees connections to Rome from all over Italy thanks to agreements with ITA Airways and Trenitalia. From Buenos Aires there are connections throughout South America, as well as a network of 39 destinations within Argentina. On a global level the international market posted 2,123,397 passengers in the first nine months of 2023, 82% of 2019 numbers and with a load factor of 84% (+9% points on 2019). “The objective for the end of 2023 is 3,000,000 passengers.”
