I've never had any major problems at EZE (at least not since having status and the benefit of using business/first check-in). There was quite a long line at security last Wednesday but there were 3 lanes open and it moved pretty fast. The line for immigration was fast too - I did a quick scan and most of the boxes were open so it seems they are geared up for the peak holiday season.

The worst line was for declaring valuables but fortunately I already had a receipt from a previous trip for my laptop etc so bypassed that this time round.
