Getting Around Argentina From Buenos Aires

Getting Around Argentina and Beyond from Buenos Aires:

Two airports—the Jorge Newbery Domestic Airport and the Ezeiza Ministro Pistarini International Airport—serve Argentina and the world. Aerolineas Argentinas (http://www.aerolineas.com.ar/home.asp) and LAN(http://www.lan.com/index-es-ar.html) are the best airlines for travel within Argentina and South America from Argentina.

The Retiro bus station in Buenos Aires goes just about everywhere in Argentina and neighboring countries. Long distant buses (time schedule: http://www.omnilineas.com.ar/) are referred to as omnibuses or simplyomnis or micros. Omnibuses are the cheapest and most common form of long distance transport in Argentina and South America. Buquebus (http://www.buquebus.com/cache/HomeARG.html), a ferry service, is a common method to go from Buenos Aires to Uruguay. Boat rides to Colonia (a costal Uruguayan town) are one to three hours long at varying prices.
