Polaris lounge in IAH would be included here also.

Also works for destination SCL(Chile), and $100 cheaper.

Were it not for covid uncertainties, I'd book this in a heartbeat.

Currently EZE is open with vaccination. I’d wager it stays that way until March/ April (their fall).

I think SCL is on a 767 wheras EZE is on a 77L. Not sure if either is Polaris though.

These fares have been around for several months, when I last checked the 767 to SCL was Polaris per UA website.

I already booked YVR-SCL for next October (with just one stop, luckily). It's Polaris.

Being based in EZE some tips... The City of Buenos Aires Health minister claims "we are in the 3rd wave", cases are going up dramatically but more community transmission (Delta) than foreign strains of the virus.

Christmas and New Years is gonna be a mess here, 60,000+ attendant concerts are back (Soda Stereo was a few blocks from my flat) and while face masks are required to enter a supermarket, all restaurants are 100% occupancy with no real controls.

The Province of Buenos Aires (which most tourists only see when they land in EZE) instituted a sanitary pass for indoor activities (not sure if it would apply in EZE). No info on a launch date for Capital Federal.

Usual warnings NEVER EVER EVER use a foreign issued credit card or debit card since you will lose 50% due to the blue rate vs. official rate. You can send funds to yourself via Western Union (but many branches have issue handing out 30,000 ARS or 150 USD) ArgenPer , which works with Azimo usually has 100,000 ARS available at any time, but lower rate. If not Arbolitos or Street exchange always existed but petty crime rates are as bad as always...

Thanks jfkeze,

This is very useful information. I'm interested in eventually visiting Buenos Aires and have wondered about the optimal method for payments and currency conversion. Slightly tangential to the thread, what is the best source for up to date information on the best USD to ARS conversion method and the corresponding rates available?

Can anyone comment on the UA cancellation in this instance? Seeing so much conflicting information.

Just a humble request, could you post the actual airports rather then the airport codes in the titles? Would make it much easiar and obviate the need for me to search the airport codes and thus know if this is of interest to me?

Highly unlikely as this is standard shorthand for the travel world. Get busy and learn them!

Oh, I agree for most posts/fares. I know the main ones. But MightyTravels posts fares from a myriad of places. Some obscure. Simply posting the fare without making it clear from where, to where, the fare actually is seems just lazy. Makes me understand the post is a result of just a few seconds effort....

Finding the fares in the first place is more than a few seconds' effort, I would think.

But with a few seconds' effort of your own, you may click on the post and see the airports listed clearly as Edmonton and Buenos Aires. And with a few more seconds' effort, you might even commit YEG = Edmonton and EZE = Buenos Aires to memory!
