Hi! We are currently in Argentina and just flew ATL - EZE on Feb 4th. Husband is platinum and I am gold. We bought a Y fare but upgraded to Comfort + at the time of booking. As others have mentioned nothing special about this flight. We flew a 767- 400. The IFE had issues and got rebooted multiple times. Dinner was OK(chicken or pasta), at least edible but I find the "breakfast" disgusting. This was an English muffin with egg(they've been serving this also on TATL flights to Europe recently as well.)We experienced extremely long lines to clear immigration and customs due to the large amount of tourists coming in. At some point they asked foreigners to go through the lines reserved for Argentinians. I did not experience any traffic jams but this is due to the fact that it is summer time and people in BA have left the city to vacation elsewhere. I did'nt have any issues departing EZE to go to Patagonia. The skyprioty lines to check in at aerolineas Argentinas were short and the skypriority boarding was respected as well.Keep in mind that the new exchange rate for international credit card is in effect so the need to send yourself money through WU is minimal now. What I have experienced so far is that if you are using a VISA card the pending charge will hit at the official rate (which is lower) and then when it actually clears it will be at the new rate which is almost as good as the blue rate. Using WU has been a hassle (they don't open every day or don't have any money). I found several places in Patagonia that would exchange dollars at the hlue rate. We are going to back to BA at the end of the week.safe travels!
