Travel in Argentina

Air travel : there is a medium size aiport in Mendoza, that services flights from mailand Argentina and International flights to and from Chile. Flight time from Buenos Aires is approximately 1 hour and 50 minutes. There are daily non stop flights to Mendoza city. Flight time from Chile is 35 minutes.

Flights from Buenos Aires to Mendoza are operated by Aerolineas Argentinas and Lan Chile.

For now (August 2008) I wouldn't go with the former. They are cheaper than Lan Chile, but you are NOT guaranteed a flight!! They are on a semi-permanent strike, until the government works out what to do with their fledging airline.

 

Land travel by bus. Here you hover over the map and chose your destination. Your origin is assumed to be Buenos Aires, Retiro, which is the main bus station in Buenos Aires. Depending on the destination, you might be able to use the "executive" service which has flat beds (there are 130 degrees and 180 degrees beds) plus bathroom, and breakfast service. This is a good option in light of the rising prices.

There is no train service in Argentina.
