This Tuesday (7) at 11:34 p.m. a special Aerolineas Argentinas flight took off from Buenos Aires to Los Angeles. The operation was carried out in Airbus A330-202, registration LV-GIF, of 6 years old.
Aerolineas Argentinas returned to Los Angeles after a 20-year absence. At the time, the carrier performed non-stop flights to and from Buenos Aires with Airbus A340-200s, which lasted a short time.
Until the late 1990s the airline operated to Los Angeles on Boeing 747-200s. Lima and/or Mexico City used to be the stopovers.
