Aerolíneas Argentinas Launches Flights to New York and Miami from Aeroparque Airport

As I had anticipated infobaein August Argentinian airlines will begin to make flights to NY y Miami starting from the Jorge Newbery Airport. The trips will begin on the 7th of that month and the company has already enabled the sale of tickets for both destinations.

According to the information published by the company, the cheapest tickets between Aeroparque and Miami will cost $183.227 per section (one way), including the surcharge for Country Tax. You can also access more complete services for $219,307 (plus rate), $270,850 (flex rate) or $1,140,381 (Business). For the return, a minimum of $187,654 is charged and values ​​reach up to $1,119,552, depending on the category. Thus, the total return value reaches the $370,881 per person.

The flights are scheduled for Tuesdays, Wednesdays, Fridays and Sundays with departure time at 11:30 p.m. The returns will be 3 weekly with departure at 10:05 and arrival at 20:00.

It is important to clarify that the values ​​may vary depending on the day chosen to fly and the time in advance with which the ticket is obtained.

As far as New York is concerned, outbound flights that can be taken from August are also listed below. $183.227 as an initial price, but the return is somewhat cheaper (from $162,398). Depending on the category, the tickets reach up to $1,918,680 and $1,026,259 respectively. The most accessible option costs $345,625 round trip per passenger.

The route to New York will have 3 weekly flights, on Mondays, Thursdays and Saturdays departing at 11:55 p.m. Returns will be on Tuesdays, Fridays, and Sundays, departing from JFK at 3:25 p.m. and arriving at 3:25 p.m.

Tickets are available on the Aerolíneas Argentinas website, but they can also be found on specialized sites, such as Turismocity and Despegar.com.

Until now it was only possible to fly to the United States departing from Ezeiza, but in 66 days it will be possible to take flights from Aeroparque, in the center of the city of Buenos Aires. The opening of new options is the result of the reforms of the air terminal, where the runway was lengthened and 62,000 m2 of granular bases and sub-bases were made, with 100,000 m3 of concrete.

In this way, the infrastructure of the Federal Capital airport will allow the landing of a Airbus A330 (the model that Aerolíneas Argentinas will use for the trip to the US) or other large international planes, such as the Boeing 787. In mid-July, at Aeroparque, work will end on the so-called North Platform, which will allow the parking of planes of that size and they will decompress the number of ships that park remotely, rather than in the terminal sleeves.

The flag airline had already requested permission from the National Civil Aviation Administration (ANAC) some time ago so that the Airbus A330 aircraft (with a capacity for 268 passengers) can leave the city of Buenos Aires with the final destination of the North American country. , but it was only with the official authorization that the company was able to start selling tickets.

The authorization for the Airbus A330 not only favors Aerolíneas Argentinas, but also US air transport companies, since it is a reciprocal permit. Starting in August, companies in the United States will be able to operate the same number of flights for that route.

However, for the moment no other offers have been made known to unite Aeroparque with the United States in addition to those of the national flag carrier. Sources from the sector explained that, although the other companies are legally authorized to operate this route, the use of the new runway would force them to set up a new logistics base in Aeroparque, a change that would imply a strong investment.

According to the most recent data published by ANAC, only during April Aerolíneas Argentinas transported 21,260 passengers to destinations in the United States, although it was not the firm with the largest participation in that market. American Airlines, it almost doubled that value, with 41,044 people transported on flights to North American soil. Companies also cover these routes United Airlines y Deltaamong other.

During the first four-month period, between all the companies they transported 191,000 people from Buenos Aires to Miami, starting of course from Ezeiza. This value represented a growth of 40% in relation to the same period of 2022.

Meanwhile, ANAC statistics indicate that between January and April of this year, 73,000 people traveled to New York, 31% more than in the same period last year.

It is estimated that the incorporation of flights from Aeroparque will favor the flow of passengers to that destination, allowing the maintenance of the growing trend.
