Among the possible interested parties are giants such as Lufthansa, which has expanded its presence in Latin America in recent years, and Delta Air Lines, which recently acquired a significant stake in Brazil's LATAM Airlines, demonstrating its interest in strengthening its position in the region. Other airlines that could be on the list include Air France-KLM and American Airlines, both with consolidated operations in the region and with strategic alliances in place with Aerolíneas Argentinas.

The entry of a new foreign investor could not only guarantee the sustainability of Aerolíneas Argentinas, but also improve the airline's competitiveness in the international market.

Despite the interest shown, the sale process is not without challenges. Aerolíneas Argentinas has historically been a state-owned company and, as such, its sale involves complex regulatory and political issues. In addition, the airline has been the recipient of subsidies from the Argentine government to maintain its operations, raising questions as to how it could continue to operate without such support in the future.

The Argentine government, led by President Alberto Fernandez, has repeatedly stressed the strategic importance of Aerolineas Argentinas as a key national asset. Despite this, the airline's financial problems and the country's growing fiscal deficit could push the government to consider a possible total or partial sale of the company, especially if it is guaranteed that the new owners will maintain essential routes and domestic connectivity.

For interested companies, Aerolíneas Argentinas represents a unique opportunity to enter or expand their presence in one of Latin America's largest and most dynamic markets. Argentina, despite its economic problems, remains an attractive destination for both tourism and business, and having a local flag carrier could facilitate the expansion of operations throughout the region.

While news of a possible sale is at a preliminary stage, interest from major international players suggests that Aerolíneas Argentinas could have a more stable future under new management. The process, which has not yet been formally announced, would involve negotiations between interested parties and the Argentine government, and could take several months.

In any event, the eventual acquisition of Aerolíneas Argentinas by an international airline could have significant implications for the aviation industry in Latin America. An injection of foreign capital could improve the airline's fleet, services and connectivity, benefiting both local passengers and international tourists.
