What Hype is tracking

  • ANAC-reported scale: c.50.6 million passengers in 2025, up 12% year‑on‑year and ~9% above 2023, with December the peak month — a new national traffic high.

  • Shifts in traffic mix and geography: Buenos Aires airports handled nearly 30 million journeys; the city terminal surpassed 5 million international travellers, Ezeiza grew 5.6%, and international departures from provincial airports rose ~38%.

  • This traffic profile is material to ongoing policy and operational issues in Argentina, including the government’s proposal to sell a 51% stake in Aerolíneas Argentinas (source:09fab27c-0dfe-4512-b07c-ea1e512d1bf9) and recent ATC strike actions in December that affected operations (source:dba8ec98-3525-4c7a-9202-1ac40da354ea).
