But you can earn Smiles with GOL, not figured out the use of them yet.

Looks like AEP is the best bet and to be honest I would take AEP over EZE every time, except that I am generally flying to/from GRU and LAN only fly there from EZE, the 1hr or so taxi ride is not that bad really, although once you have done the 15 minutes to Palermo/Recoleta/Barrio Norte from AEP you will not want to use EZE again.

Taking this slightly O/T - There was a group of British tourists at the hotel this morning, just starting second week of a tour, did Chile and Patagonia last week, done B's A's over the weekend and now off to Brazil. First stop Igaucu - the rep arrives this morning to collect them from the hotel and starts laughing, they are all dressed very smart, wrapped up well for the Argentine weather (which is cold and windy this morning). She informs them they are going straight to the falls from the airport, no chance to get changed. They were not happy, cue several of them starting to unpack suitcases and head off to the toilets with shorts and t-shirts.

Rule #1 - Read the itinerary!
