Post Re: Cheap Flights

Hi travelers, Aerolineas Argentinas as well as Lan apply this policy of charging a different price for non-argentine residents. When you book flights (even in the buenos aires office of the airline) they request your passport number and country of origin. As far as I am concerned, it is always better to book in advance due to the lack of availability during high season. Aerolineas Argentinas has two different group of prices for foreing travelers:
- One if the international airline you used to arrive Argentina is Aerolineas.
- One if you are using any other airline.
Then, in each one of these two categories, you have three different fares that will depend on availabily at the moment of booking.
During 2006 I was getting better prices for domestic flights in Argentina from outside the country rather than from Argentina. It is just a matter of checking different sources.
