Sunday nights have bad traffic but usually on the opposite direction, i.e. lots of people coming in from (their weekend homes in) the province towards the city. Still, I would allow a bit more time than you are considering and probably would leave Palermo at around 8.30/9pm. Worst case scenario you spend some more time at the lounge!

Thanks a lot. I was also under impression that my night will be ruined :-)
I'll be flying GOL to Rio and then continuing to Europe.
BTW, how do you handle the phone cost situation in Argentina?
Using my European SIM card means I'll be in the "roaming mode" which is pricey as hell.
Do you buy a local prepaid SIM card to make local calls? If so, are they available at AEP/EZE airports? And what tel company?

You can buy a local SIM card in the cuty centre . easily available in kiosks and locutorios . Not sure if they are available at the airport though.
Mobile service varies acccording to where you are in the city . I use Personal which works for me . Movistar and Claro are the other options
