This past Saturday (12/19), it was Aerolineas Argentinas' turn to resume flights between Buenos Aires and Salvador, after the Argentine government allowed Brazilians to enter its territory. However, there are some requirements to meet in order to fly aboard this route. The information can be consulted on the official tourism website of Argentina - https://www.argentina.travel/#!/global/information/informacion-covid-19-coronavirus?lang=pt
The flight AR1220 landed in Salvador at 10:36. The aircraft used was the Boeing 737-800, registered LV-GVA, with a capacity for 170 seats.

Furthermore, Argentina is the largest market for foreign visitors in Bahia. We expect, with this return, an extra boost in our market ", highlighted Marc Gordien, commercial director of Salvador Bahia Airport.
