Milei and privatizing AR - what is the process?

Hello,

I keep reading that Milei has taken “the first step” toward privatization of AR and giving it to the unions. What are the other steps?

I’ve also read that it may be difficult to get through Congress.

Could someone familiar with Argentine politics tell me what the process is? Could he do it by decree? Realistically what’s the fastest it could happen?

I am asking out of self-interest. I have five flights booked on AR Jan-March. I keep seeing unions would likely get 6-12 month of funding to try and turn it around, but that’s conjecture.
