Which airlines operate flights to Argentina?

VRG Linhas Aereas, Brasil Central Linha, Kiwi International Airlines, British Airways, and South African Airways all offer cheap flights to and from Argentina, but they all have their own set of pros and cons. While some of these airlines will offer you the cheapest deal, you may have to sacrifice price for comfort. Ensure that you have a detailed look at the prices on checked baggage, especially for flights during the peak season, as these prices could dramatically increase during the busiest seasons of the year. South African Airways and British Airways might not be the cheapest options when it comes to budget flights, but they do offer the comfort factor and the perks of free on-board snacks, which is an added bonus. Once you’re set on where exactly you want to go in Argentina, you can go ahead and compare different flight prices to land yourself the best deal.

How to get from the airport to the city center?

Buenos Aires:

Buenos Aires has two airports: Aeroparque (AEP) and Ezeiza (EZE). AEP is smaller yet closer to the city center. If arriving at AEP, you can take the “colectivo” (bus) that runs a route directly from the airport to the Buenos Aires city center.  If flying to EZE you can take the Number 86 bus, which will take you to Plaza de Mayo, the Buenos Aires city center.  You may also want to consider using the shuttle service called Manuel Tienda León, which will have you dropped off at your hotel, but make sure you book well in advance for these services.

Mendoza:

Mendoza’s airport is very small, and as such, public transport is limited to that offered by remise. From the Mendoza airport, you can make use of the remises to get to the city center. These are private drivers and taxis, all registered and deemed very safe to use. Please keep in mind that you’ll have to call a cab in order to get a ride, and once you’ve secured a transfer, it’s essential that you agree with the fee provided by the driver before departing for the city center.
