EZE connection time
 
Hi!

My flight from Frankfurt should land at 06:25 and I was wondering if can make it to a flight to Ushuaia that leave at 9:50. I've baggage to claim and drop and also passport control.
Is it too tight or should be enough? My other option is to take a flight from AEP airport later but i rather not do that,

Thanks!

Fine
 
3.5 hours to transfer is more than enough time. The foreigner immigration line can take time (I’ve done 1 hour waits a few times, also 5-10 mins many times) but that’s usually a little later in the morning (8-10am arrivals from USA) and getting bags and customs is like a couple mins at most. Not worth the transfer to AEP, it’s a long drive (45 mins or more depending traffic), unless you have a crazy hours long delayed flight you should be fine.

If this is all on one ticket with the domestic leg on AR, I wouldn't be terribly worried about it. In the worst case, if you land in EZE too late to make your flight, AR can put you on another flight - they have a few. In the worst worst case, you might have to make it to AEP on your own, but that's not a huge problem if you have a few hours between flights.

I definitely would NOT do this if your flight to USH is on a separate ticket, particularly if it's with one of the low-cost carriers. It's not unheard of for airlines in Argentina to suddenly move their flight departure times up by a few hours. I personally wouldn't risk it.

It is also not unheard of for AR to change the departure airport altogether.

Hi! I'm using this one here for my question as it is pretty similar, hope you can help :-)

Landing in EZE at 07:55 am on LH510 in C. Would like to book a seperate ticket from EZE to USH on AR1884 in Eco, departing 09:50 am. LH510 on time performance seems ok, just once 30 minutes late in the last 10 days, rest was between 07:40 and 07:55. I do NOT have to clear baggage and recheck, just hand luggage. Will I make it to my domestic AR flight at 09:50? My research so far showed that there is no airside transit, so everybody needs to go through immigration in EZE? Thank you for your help :-)
(Alternative would be AR1888 at 11:55 from AEP. I guess this should be ok even with the conncection from EZE to AEP...?)
