Aerolíneas Argentinas inaugurated its flights to Aruba and extended the operation until September
The airline inaugurated its new direct route between Buenos Aires and Aruba on Sunday night, expanding its network to the Caribbean as one of the most in-demand destinations of the season
The flight departed from Ezeiza International Airport at midnight and arrived on the island early this morning, Monday.
The inaugural flight took off with all 170 seats filled, reflecting the excellent commercial reception of the new destination in the Argentine market.
During the peak summer season, the island will receive three weekly flights from Buenos Aires, one from Córdoba, and one from Mendoza.
Due to strong demand since the initial announcement, the company confirmed the extension of the operation until the end of September, with flights from Buenos Aires and Cordoba.
It should be mentioned that, last Saturday, the departure of the first operation to Queen Beatrix Airport in Oranjestad had to be suspended, due to the limitations to operate linked to the conflict in Venezuela, which affected the commercial flights of all companies operating in the region.
The schedule planned from May includes four weekly flights from Buenos Aires to Aruba (adding one flight), operating on Mondays, Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays, and one weekly flight from Córdoba on Thursdays. All flights are operated with Boeing 737-MAX aircraft, the latest generation of planes that offer greater efficiency, lower fuel consumption, and a more comfortable travel experience.
Aruba is establishing itself as one of the most attractive destinations in the Caribbean thanks to its year-round pleasant climate, its international recognition for having the best beach in the Caribbean, its diverse and multicultural cuisine, and its shopping offering some of the best prices in the region. Furthermore, entry to the destination is simple: Argentine travelers only need a valid passport, a completed ED Card (digital boarding pass), and proof of return ticket and confirmed accommodation; no visa is required for tourist stays.
With this addition, Aerolíneas adds a new destination to the Caribbean, expanding travel options and responding to the growing demand from passengers for new tourist destinations.
