Argentina Expands Contracting Flexibility for Aeronautical Meteorological Services. The Government of Argentina has introduced new measures to expand contracting flexibility for Aeronautical Meteorological Services (MET), as part of its ongoing effort to modernize the national aviation sector. The decision, established through a presidential decree, allows Empresa Argentina de Navegación Aérea S.A. (EANA), the country’s air navigation service provider, to deliver MET services either directly or through third-party providers.

Under the new framework, EANA is no longer limited to receiving services exclusively from the Servicio Meteorológico Nacional. Instead, it can now contract any qualified national or international provider capable of supplying accurate and reliable aeronautical weather information, essential for the safe and efficient conduct of flight operations. Oversight, regulation, and supervision of MET service provision will remain under the responsibility of the Administración Nacional de Aviación Civil, ensuring compliance with technical and operational standards. Meanwhile, the National Meteorological Service will continue providing MET services to EANA for up to 180 business days following the decree’s implementation, guaranteeing continuity during the transition period.
