PLUNA Líneas Aéreas Uruguayas S.A.[2] was the flag carrier of Uruguay.[3] It was headquartered in Carrasco, Montevideo[4][5] and operated scheduled services within South America, as well as scheduled cargo[6] and charter services[7] from its hub at Carrasco International Airport.[8]
On 5 July 2012,[9] only two days after the carrier's employees went on strike amid mounting financial difficulties,[10][11] the Uruguayan government decided to close the airline down and liquidate it.[12][13] The carrier was wholly owned by the government at the time of its closure.[1]
