Argentina Grants American Jet 15-Year Permit for Nationwide Airport Ramp Services

The move advances the competition push under the 2024 access regime.

Overview

  • Disposición 48/2025 published in the Boletín Oficial authorizes American Jet S.A. to provide operational and ramp services at airports across Argentina for 15 years with automatic renewal contingent on safety standards.
  • The authorization was issued under Decreto 599/2024 and the procedure set by Resolución 49/2024, which required documentation under Article 105 of the Aeronautical Code and Law 17.285.
  • ANAC’s Dirección Nacional de Transporte Aéreo issued favorable technical and economic‑financial reports, and the Aeronautical Authority retains responsibility for certification and safety oversight.
  • American Jet is the second company cleared for ramp services in less than a week, following CrossRacer Ramp’s approval under Disposición 45/2025.
  • The latest permits align with a wider liberalization effort that also authorized LATAM to operate the Buenos AiresSantiagoRío de Janeiro route via Disposición 47/2025.
