The Buenos Aires City airport, Aeroparque Jorge Newbery, will shut down between Tuesday and Thursday next week due to maintenance work on the runways.
All flights to and from the city between 9 a.m., August 25, and 4 p.m., August 27, will operate out of Ezeiza International Airport.
According to the airport operator Aeropuertos Argentina, the dates were chosen because it is during this timeframe that the least amount of flights take place compared to the rest of the week.
Ezeiza, which usually operates around 530 flights during these days, will see an 80% growth, jumping to 940 flights during the 55 hours in which Aeroparque will remain closed.
If you have a scheduled flight during those days, be sure to make proper arrangements to get to Ezeiza. The distance between Buenos Aires City and Ezeiza is around 35 kilometers, meaning that a car ride can take between 45 minutes and an hour and a half depending on traffic.
