Travel to Buenos Aires by Plane

Ezeiza International Airport (EZE)

Ministro Pistarini International Airport, commonly known as Ezeiza, is Argentina’s main airport and the primary gateway for international flights. It is located approximately 35 kilometres southwest of the city centre and operates around the clock. It is served by the world’s leading airlines, including Aerolíneas Argentinas, American Airlines, Air France, Iberia, Lufthansa, LATAM and United, among many others. The airport has two modern terminals with duty-free shops, restaurants, currency exchange offices, ATMs and mobile phone outlets where you can purchase a local SIM card.

How to Get from Ezeiza to the City Centre

Official taxi and remise

In the arrivals area of both terminals, there are official taxi and remise desks with fixed fares by destination. Always use the authorised services inside the airport and avoid accepting offers from informal drivers outside. Cabify also operates from Ezeiza.

Private transfer

Tienda León is the most popular transfer service for arrivals in Buenos Aires. It offers minibuses and private cars with frequent departures to the city centre, stopping at major hotels. Fixed price, reliable and bookable in advance through their website.

Public transport

Bus line 8 connects Ezeiza with the city centre. It is the most affordable option, though also the slowest — particularly with luggage.

Car hire

Both terminals have car hire agencies on site, including Hertz, Avis, Budget, Europcar and Sixt.
