Argentina International Airports
The country's most popular air gateway is the airport in Buenos Aires. In addition to it, the following have international status:
- San Carlos de Bariloche airport in the west of the country. 9 km to the city center can be covered by a regular bus.
- The air harbor of Salta Martin-Miguel de Guemes in the province of Salta is mainly visited by airlines from neighboring South American states - Peru, Brazil, Uruguay, Chile. The city in which the airport is located is the provincial capital of the same name.
- It is only 13 km from the center of Rosario to the airport of Argentina called Rosario Islas Malvinas. The transfer is carried out by buses or taxis, which are not too expensive in the country.
- Resistencia Airport in the province of Chaco receives flights from neighboring countries and the capital of Argentina.
Russian airlines do not make direct flights to the country and to get to Argentina from Moscow or St. Petersburg is possible only with a connection in one of the European capitals. Travel time from Russia to Argentina, excluding transfers, will be at least 15-16 hours, depending on the chosen flight and airline. The most economical flight options can be "caught" by subscribing to news and special offers of such air carriers as Spanish Iberia, Alitalia, British Airways, Air France or German Lufthansa.
Metropolitan direction
The runways of Eseira International Airport are located 22 km southeast of the center of Buenos Aires. This is the country's largest air gateway, carrying up to 9 million passengers annually and accepting, in addition to the flights of its neighbors on the continent, flights of such European air carriers as Lufthansa, Air Europa, Iberia Airlines, Alitalia, KLM, Air France and British Airways.
