The official airline in Argentina is named Avian Líneas Aéreas S.A. but trading as Avianca Argentina through a brand license agreement (similar to some of the Virgin airlines as mentioned above).
They're not completely unrelated though. The main investor in Avian Líneas Aéreas S.A. (AKA Avianca Argentina) is Synergy Group. Synergy Group is also a major shareholder in Avianca Holdings S.A. (AV Colombia)
In short:
- "Avianca Argentina" is NOT a subsidiary or part of Avianca Holdings S.A.
- Avianca Holdings S.A. and none of its subsidiaries have domestic routes in Argentina
- Avianca S.A. -from Avianca Holdings S.A. - operates the flights Bogotá-Buenos Aires-Bogotá and Lima-Buenos Aires-Lima.
