Buenos Aires. State-owned airline Aerolíneas Argentinas is downsizing for a potential sale. To do this, it is cutting its staff by 13 percent, closing loss-making domestic routes and even eliminating snacks available to passengers, according to sources and documents seen by Reuters. The cuts, many of which had not been previously reported, are part of an attempt to ease the airline’s burden on the state’s back and attract investment. The plan is moving forward, despite the criticism that libertarian President Javier Milei’s plan to privatize Aerolíneas Argentinas has brought.
