Overview
- The Asociación Trabajadores del Estado (ATE) confirmed a 48‑hour action for Thursday and Friday that will run two protest windows each day from 9:00–12:00 and 18:00–21:00.
- The union says the measures will hit operations at more than 27 airports, including Aeroparque Jorge Newbery and Ezeiza, and that only sanitary, humanitarian, organ‑transfer and official flights will be guaranteed during the protest windows.
- The core union demands are reopening the sectoral collective bargaining (paritaria), payment of agreed extraparitary salary items and dedicated funding for operational airport services such as rescue and firefighting and fiscalization.
- The national government has formally intimated ATE to maintain at least 75% service coverage, said ANAC and the labor secretariat will monitor compliance and may order conciliation or other interventions if minimums are not met.
- Airlines and airport operators are planning contingencies and advising passengers to check flight status, and the dispute could escalate or prolong if talks do not resume quickly.
