Flybondi is facing mounting disruption in Argentina after courts ordered freezes on its bank accounts over tax debts to ARCA, while its website went offline with a 504 error and flights remained suspended for a 12th consecutive day. The low-cost carrier’s operational paralysis has spread beyond the legal dispute, leaving passengers unable to buy tickets, rebook journeys or check itineraries.
Federal judges in Buenos Aires imposed precautionary measures tied to unpaid tax obligations, with the claims centred on arrears that run into the billions of pesos once interest and costs are included. The court action adds to a broader crisis that has already brought repeated cancellations, labour unrest and questions over the airline’s short-term solvency.
Flybondi has also continued selling tickets despite the shutdown, intensifying consumer complaints and regulatory scrutiny. Reports have pointed to unpaid wages and severance, friction involving investors, and speculation over insolvency proceedings, but the clearest immediate development is the court-ordered freeze on company funds and the collapse of the airline’s online sales platform.
