Aerolíneas Argentinas Launches First Direct Flights From Buenos Aires, Córdoba and Mendoza to Aruba for Jan.–Feb. 2026

The move targets growing Caribbean demand through a US$799 launch fare, signaling a wider commercial push to expand the flag carrier’s international network.

Overview

  • Seasonal operations run from January 1 to February 28, 2026, with tickets already on sale at a promotional round‑trip fare of US$799 plus taxes from any of the three departure cities.
  • The schedule includes three weekly rotations linking Buenos Aires, Aruba and Córdoba with return to Buenos Aires, plus a weekly non‑stop CórdobaAruba service on Thursdays and Mendoza–Aruba on Fridays.
  • This marks the airline’s first direct Argentina–Aruba connection, replacing previous itineraries that required connections via Avianca, Copa or LATAM hubs.
  • Reports indicate Boeing 737 MAX aircraft with roughly 170 seats will operate the route, with the Mendoza non‑stop taking about 7 to 7.5 hours.
  • The launch forms part of a broader summer expansion using targeted promotions, financing and loyalty benefits, following strong Argentine demand for Caribbean destinations such as Punta Cana and Cancún.
