Soleado (Spanish for 'Sunny') is a private carrier based in Buenos Aires and the Jorge Newbery International Airport. Formed as a regional charter carrier in response to the nationalisation of Aerolíneas Argentinas in September 2008 along with its sister company Austral, it has slowly expanded into the domestic Argentine market despite the constraints imposed by governmental regulations. More recently since the liberal victory of Mauricio Macri in the 2015 election, its aim has been to revamp its ageing fleet and streamline its services in order to firmly establish itself as an affordable alternative within both the domestic and continental market.
