The ANAC demanded that the company present a solution for the delays and cancellations and in the last hours, the company responded.
The Government of Javier Milei is evaluating the possibility of reducing the routes assigned to Flybondi due to the increase in delays and cancellations registered in the last month. It is worth mentioning that, days ago, the National Civil Aviation Administration (ANAC) demanded the company present a plan to solve these problems. In response, Flybondi presented a report in the last few hours, although the application of possible economic sanctions is still being analyzed.
Flybondi’s numbers
According to the Ministry of Transportation, Flybondi canceled 20% of the air operations carried out in November. Of the 1991 flights operated, 384 suffered cancellations. Added to this is that more than 700 flights had to be rescheduled.
Given this poor performance, the Government informed the airline that adjust flight requests that sends to the National Civil Aviation Administration (ANAC) to its actual operational capacity, “avoiding offering flights that it cannot guarantee or operate effectively“.
Likewise, the statement defended the Deregulation and Open Skies policy in search of “greater efficiency in the air sector, without affecting the rights of passengers.”

A far from minor issue is that the cancellations and delays in airline flights not only complicate things for users, but are directly harming the entire tourism industry.. For example, last week, in a joint statement, the members of the chambers of Tourism and Commerce and Industry and the Hotel and Gastronomic Business Association of Bariloche expressed “its deep concern at the repeated cancellations of flights operated by Flybondi to and from this city.”
Meanwhile, the company provides very brief reasons for so many cancellations and delays in its flights. In general terms, the company alleges that the inconveniences are due to “operational issues linked to fleet availability.”
The truth is that frequent cancellations have been a constant in Flybondi’s operation, which generated a wave of complaints from passengers. In this framework, the ANAC issued three violation reports to the airline, reflecting a problematic history in compliance with aviation sector regulations.
