Airplane that may be carrying Flávio Bolsonaro heads to Miami after stop in Ecuador
Argentine immigration registers entry of the senator with his family; presence in the segment between Ecuador and the United States was not confirmed
Senator Flávio Bolsonaro (PL) crossed the border between Brazil and Argentina through Foz do Iguaçu, in Paraná, on Tuesday night (27), accompanied by his wife and two daughters. According to a statement from the National Directorate of Migration of Argentina, the family followed on a private flight to Guayaquil, Ecuador.
On Wednesday morning, the aircraft used on the trip took off from Ecuador to Miami on Estados Unidos, according to FlightAware records. The aerial monitoring reports the plane’s movement, but does not allow to confirm who was on board that stretch.
The passage through the Tancredo Neves International Bridge, which connects Foz do Iguaçu to Puerto Iguazú, was registered at 22:50. The Argentine authorities reported that the four had presented valid documentation to enter the country and that the procedure took place without incidents.

According to the statement, the family embarked at 11:30 p.m. on a private flight operated by Baires Fly S.A. The flight plan indicated Guayaquil as a destination.
Travel occurs after judicial restriction
The senator’s departure came after Minister Alexandre de Moraes, from Supremo Tribunal Federal (STF), determined that he would remain in Brazil. The decision also established the cancellation of Brazilian passports and the delivery of any foreign documents.
The measure is related to an investigation into suspected money laundering involving Flavio and lawyer Willer Tomaz. The senator denies any wrongdoing.
The Argentine press release does not say which document Flavio presented to cross the border. It also does not clarify the circumstances of Brazil’s exit from the judicial restriction.
