ROUTE UPDATES: Aerolineas Argentinas transferred domestic E-190 flights from Buenos Aires Ezeiza (EZE) to Buenos Aires Aeroparque (AEP) - 16-21Mar21 - Part 1

All regularly-scheduled commercial flights to/from and between airports in Argentina were cancelled between 20Mar20 and 22Oct20 due to the COVID-19 pandemic.   

Many flights were resumed out of Buenos Aires Ezeiza (EZE) starting on 22Oct20 with many of those now being transferred to Buenos Aires Aeroparque (AEP) due to the reopening of this airport after the recent completion of its runway reconstruction work.  

Aerolineas Argentinas and Jetsmart Argentina were the first airlines to transfer flights from EZE to AEP starting with some arrivals on 15Mar21.
 
Aerolineas is planning to transfer all of its E-190 services from EZE to AEP between 16Mar21-22Mar21 followed by its 737-800 / 700 flights in the coming  days/weeks.

Post-Quarantine
        
Prior to the pandemic, Flybondi operated a fleet of five 737-800's to 19 destinations covering 28 routes (five of them international) with Buenos Aires service being almost exclusively out of El Palomar (EPA).
Currently, in March 2021, the carrier operates two 737-800's to 12 destinations on 12 routes, all of them being domestic flights out of Buenos Aires Ezeiza (EZE) due to the temporary, and possibly permanent, closure of El Palomar (EPA) to commercial air service.  Most, if not all, of the EZE service is expected to be moved from EZE to Buenos Aires Aeroparque (AEP) on a gradual basis once AEP reopens on 15Mar21 (the airport has been closed for most of the last year due to its sole runway being completely rebuilt, lengthened and widened).
Increased domestic service to more destinations, including between "interior" cities, and international service to Asuncion (ASU), Rio de Janeiro Galeao (GIG) and Sao Paulo Guarulhos (GRU) is expected to be added in the coming months with presumably more aircraft joining the fleet to operate the larger number of flights.
