Flybondi (FO, Córdoba International) has ordered fifteen A220-300s with options for five additional units, and ten B737-10 with options for five more. Deliveries will start in 2027 and are expected to be finalised through 2029 for the A220s, and 2030 for the B737 MAX.

The Argentine low-cost carrier’s new major investor, COC Global Enterprise, will invest USD1.7 billion in the new fleet.

Once delivered, Flybondi will become the first operator of the A220-300 in Argentina.

Its order for the B737-10s follows one placed by flag carrier Aerolíneas Argentinas, which announced a commitment for eight units in late November 2025.

Despite the new order, Flybondi does not expect to stop adding additional capacity through seasonal ACMI contracts, chief executive Mauricio Sana said during a press conference. The airline sees them as important to boost its capacity during the high season.

Flybondi’s current fleet comprises fourteen in-house B737-800s. It also wet-leases one A320-200 from Avion Express, and one B737-800 from ETF Airways. Up to eight more narrowbodies are coming in the following weeks from these two ACMI providers as well as Spain’s AlbaStar.

With the arrival of the new aircraft types, Flybondi will look into developing in-house maintenance capabilities. “Remember that we strive to make our fleet as reliable as possible, and to achieve that we will have to strengthen our line maintenance capacity and look for partners to handle heavy maintenance. This is work we will need to carry out over the next three years,” Sana said.

Sana said that the airline did not envision a merger or consolidation possibilities in the next three to four years. The South American airline industry has recently seen an increase in merger and acquisitions, most notably with Abra Group’s purchase of SKY Airline (Chile).
