Airlines

Heads up. Flights cancelled. Sadly TAM neglected to send me an email telling me my flight this morning to Asuncióand had been canceled, along with pretty much every other flight as best I could see. Apparently they will be reassessing the situation this afternoon. That's too late for me and I will be canceling my short trip and looking for some local trouble over the weekend.

I passed by AEP at 5PM and it was totally dead.

[/QUOTE]Am tracking DL 101 from Atlanta, is cancelled and all arrivals after 8AM next morning too.

So if you are here in BsAs and going out on the 13th, your respective plane may not be in town!

Looks like the European flites are in the air, (BA 247 and 510 from Frankfurt) but watch for possible diversions, may not land at EZE.

Got a mail that they cancel my flight to Paris tomorrow, and basically a have a nice day message!

I tried to go to the airport but no luck or info there.

Called Air France and can not get anyone on the line!

Use Skype and call Air France in the United States. +1-800-237-2747 I've had fairly good luck getting a rep on the phone in the past. I just tried now and it took a whole (long hold times) but was able to get a rep. See if you can reschedule for Wednesday. If not, get a refund for your ticket and call Delta +1-800-221-1212. Like Air France a member of Sky Team or go to their office at AV Santa Fe 887. Also try American at +1-800-433-7300 or go to their office at Suipacha 1111. Unfortunately, it appears that for the next two days, all international flights from EZE have been cancelled.

If you ABSOLUTELY need to exit BsAs, take an overnight bus to Mendoza and continue from there. You can get a flight from MDZ to either Santiago or Sao Paulo and continue on to CDG. I would suggest Rosario or Cordoba, but I think all flights from those cities connect through Aeroparque. And forget about the BuqueBus to Montevideo. MVD is shut down too.

Good luck!

Greetings Everyone,

This is a link to the Argentina government's official airport website which has the real time status updates of arrivals and departures at all of the country's airports, including EZE.

There is an option to view an English version of the webpage.

Good luck,

Jackson

Here Is another link for departures and arrivals at EZE in English

Just click on the link, it works I just tried it.

Mongers-

Another option would be to either take a bus or rent a car (driving your own car you can arrive in Asuncion in less than 15 hours) and drive up to Asuncion (ASU) and take a flight from there. From ASU you could take a flight to on GOL to Sao Paulo and then on to Europe on any number of airlines. Other options from ASU would be flights to Lima (several European destinations non-stop) or Santa Cruz de la Sierra (flights to Miami and Madrid).

Suerte,

Flew in yesterday and had no problems. Most flights are running but some with long delays

Flyer talk featured it as a suggested mileage run. AA's wedsite has the cheapest fares they offer, except through consolidators.

San franciso is the special-can search for cheapest connection-miami, jfk / NYC or dfw. I costs less to travel fron sanfrancisco than miami?

That depends on how far in advance you search. I searched last week for a Mid November flight from SFO to EZE and the Price was $1400. Two months ago it was $1000.

Your Trip Cost:

I just picked random dates, other dates are available.

There can be a wide pricing variation, based upon route-sfo-dfw-eze; sfo-mia-eze; or sfo-jfk-eze. If you have flexibility, I'll bet you can go under us$800 and possibly get mileage bonus-sfo to jfk.

Best of luck and thank you for all the work you do to help all of the AP membership

I guess I picked a day when the plane was almost full.

I noticed on the return flight, as I looked down the list for the hours of departure the rates went up. That is confusing. I can only remember one departure time. 9 something.
