Transfers and Airports in Argentina: real experience from chats

From real experience

tipWhen traveling on a single ticket with the same airline (e.g., Aerolíneas Argentinas) for connecting flights, if the layover duration is significantly shortened (e.g., from 3.5 hours to 1 hour), the airline is responsible for ensuring the passenger reaches the final destination.
In Buenos Aires Aeroparque (AEP), while the airport is small, passport control queues can be an issue. If faced with a tight connection, passengers should immediately inform airport staff. If a missed connection occurs due to the airline's schedule change, the airline is obligated to rebook the passenger on the next available flight at no additional cost. It is often possible to avoid re-entering security/registration if the flights are on a single ticket and from the same terminal, but immigration might be required depending on domestic-to-international transfer. Inquire with the airline about free changes to an earlier flight if the connection is deemed too short.

rulePassport stamps upon arrival/departure are generally not issued at Buenos Aires Ministro Pistarini International Airport (EZE).
However, policies can vary: * Some users report no stamps at EZE. * Some land borders (e.g., Cordoba, Iguazu) might issue stamps upon request. * There's an anecdotal report of stamps being issued in April-May 2026. * Travelers who require a stamp should be aware it's not guaranteed at EZE and may need to seek it at specific border crossings.

The total estimated transfer time from landing to reaching the city center is roughly 2-2.5 hours, even during evening hours which might have lighter traffic.
