Gulfstream G400 held 24 hours at Puerto Iguazú before Bolsonaro's flight to Ecuador
A Gulfstream G400 private jet was held for 24 hours at Puerto Iguazú airport before departing with Brazilian politician Flavio Bolsonaro and his family to Guayaquil, Ecuador, amid a judicial ban on his travel. The aircraft, operated by Baires Fly, landed Monday night from Buenos Aires but was denied takeoff authorization by Argentina's civil aviation authority. After a heated dispute, it departed Tuesday night following Bolsonaro's entry into Argentina via the Tancredo Neves border crossing. Bolsonaro, son of jailed former president Jair Bolsonaro, lost Brazil's presidential election Sunday and faces two Supreme Court investigations. His passports were cancelled after he failed to surrender them, with reports suggesting US involvement in his escape plan.
