The agreement goes into effect this Thursday and will allow customers of both airlines to fly beyond the capital of the other country with a single ticket.

Iberia and Aerolíneas Argentinas have reached a codeshare agreement to connect Spain and Argentina, connecting 29 Spanish destinations with 37 in the South American country.

The agreement goes into effect this Thursday and will allow customers of both airlines to fly beyond the capital of the other country with a single ticket, instead of having to make two separate reservations.

Thus, from Spain, flights will be available to 37 destinations within Argentina, operated from Buenos Aires, such as Córdoba, Mendoza, Bariloche, Mar de Plata, Rosario, Ushuaia, Iguazú, Tucumán, and El Calafate, among others.

On the other hand, travelers crossing the Atlantic aboard Aerolíneas Argentinas will have access to 29 Spanish cities, served by flights operated by Iberia from Terminal 4 of Madrid-Barajas Airport, including Barcelona, Valencia, Seville, Bilbao, Malaga, Granada, Palma de Mallorca, Ibiza, and Tenerife.

Aerolíneas Argentinas President and CEO Fabián Lombardo said this alliance with Iberia is "a natural response" to the airline's historic ties, both cultural and business.

"Argentines have deep roots in Spain, and this type of agreement will allow us to bring them closer to their origins through a new network of destinations, adding a partner with a highly respected market," he emphasized.

For his part, Iberia's CEO and President, Marco Sansavini, stated that this agreement will allow them to offer customers "the best travel options in a market as important as Argentina."

He also emphasized that the company transports more than 2,000 people a day on its three daily flights between Buenos Aires and Madrid, and that they will now have the opportunity to travel between both countries more comfortably.
