Airlines in Argentina

September 2026

Argentina’s airlines post positive value growth in 2026, with sales increasing well ahead of inflation, highlighting resilience despite a challenging macroeconomic environment. The entry and expansion of low-cost operators, alongside regulatory liberalisation and new international routes, are reshaping accessibility, connectivity and competition, supporting strong demand. As deregulation accelerates and the South American Single Sky agreement begins to take effect, the landscape becomes increasingly dynamic, enabling both foreign and domestic carriers to expand networks and enhance service quality. Airlines remain highly attractive, with continued growth expected through the forecast period, supported by rising consumer expenditure, expanding route networks, and the rapid adoption of digital tools and artificial intelligence to improve operational efficiency and enhance the passenger experience. To succeed, airlines must prioritise network diversification, digital transformation and competitive pricing, while leveraging partnerships and operational efficiencies to capture growing passenger volumes and maintain an edge as competition intensifies.

Airlines

Airlines covers sales made to country residents (outbound and domestic tourists) and excludes sales to incoming tourists. Please note that airlines sales made to country residents when they are travelling abroad or through foreign websites or apps are also included and will be considered under the country of residence. The total amount paid for a flight after taxes and other charges is included. The return flight leg is included as well as the total amount paid for a flight ticket. Value sales exclude all forms of transit. Euromonitor International considers airline capacity and passengers carried in terms of enplanement based on scheduled flights. A passenger whose flight stops mid-route to pick up more passengers but continues with the same aircraft/flight number would be counted as one enplanement. A passenger who switches flights to another airline or aircraft with a new flight number mid-journey would be considered as two enplanements. Enplanements are not the same as number of seats sold or seat bookings, as the latter both include all bookings and do not exclude no-shows and cancellations. Direct transit passengers are excluded, eg those who continue on the same flight. Other transit passengers are included where passengers change plane with a new flight number. Air passengers carried relate directly to air value sales, where domestic and outbound travellers are only included. As such value and volume data in both sizes and shares is aligned and exclude the inbound component.
