Re: Cheap Flights I dont blog often but this ticked me off, and seems actually important if you dont want to get ripped off when flying! I had such aggravation down here buying a domestic plane ticket. There is basically one domestic airline, Aerolineas, so they have a strangle hold on the prices and tax foreigners because they can. I checked 2 prices on their website, one from residing in US side(English) and then one residing Argentina(in Spanish). I found a huge discrepancy in price! of $200.00 USD in savings in flying to UShuia on the Argentinian residency (after currency change). The prices were all over the place. Some flights were also not available at all on the US side. First I called the contact office NY , they said I have to buy the tickets under “residing in US." Then I called the contact office in Buenos Aires, and they gave me the Argentinian price and I gave them info where I was staying. I have to pick up the tickets at their office, i hope it works out.
So, long story short if you are flying within the country, check out the agentinian residency prices too, and you may be able to get that price if you buy the tickets within the country |
