✈️ SAEZ Accounts for Nearly 90% of Traffic Across the Two-Airport Sample
Business aviation activity at Buenos Aires’s two airports is highly concentrated at SAEZ. Avi-Go data show that from June 8 to September 5, 2026, SAEZ recorded 137 business aircraft departures and 138 arrivals, totaling 275 movements; during the same period, SADP recorded 21 departures and 12 arrivals, totaling 33 movements. The two-airport sample comprised 308 movements, with SAEZ accounting for 89.29% and SADP for 10.71%, a difference of 242 movements. These percentages use the SAEZ and SADP subset as the denominator and reflect the sample’s internal composition rather than the market share of all Buenos Aires airports.
Impact: During this 90-day window, observed business aircraft activity to and from SAEZ was significantly higher than at SADP. Charter brokers providing services at these two airports can therefore view SAEZ as the more common trip node within the sample. The traffic gap between the two airports also means that missions involving SADP are better served by arrangements tailored specifically to its 33 actual movements, rather than directly applying SAEZ’s operating cadence.
Recommendation: Future analysis could include SADF and SABE alongside SAEZ and SADP within the same reporting window, comparing business aircraft movements and changes in their respective shares before assessing the distribution of activity among Buenos Aires-area airports. At this stage, analysts can continue tracking whether SAEZ maintains a relatively high share under a standardized four-airport scope, while monitoring how the difference between SADP’s arrival and departure volumes evolves over a longer period.
