The launch of a new regional airline in 2026 will activate a wave of regulatory and transactional aviation work across Argentina and neighbouring jurisdictions. With Argentina as a strategic hub in its route network, legal teams should prepare for increased activity around bilateral air service agreements, AOC certification processes, slot allocations, and employment structuring. Enabled by the open skies frameworks, the carrier will operate with fewer restrictions, but local compliance, airport access, and operational licensing will require careful navigation. For aviation clients, this is a timely opportunity to engage in regulatory strategy, cross-border partnerships, and infrastructure planning as a neighbouring country reclaims its flag carrier status.
