Plane would be ok for a domestic fight, not for a more than 7hs international one And food was really really poor and no entertainment at all, not even with streaming

Plane would be ok for a domestic fight, not for a more than 7hs international one And food was really really poor and no entertainment at all, not even with streaming

Boarding was uncomfortable. Groups weren't boarding in an orderly fashion because everyone was taking to buses together. It was 90 degrees, but there was no air-conditioning. We left 40 minutes late without explanation. Uncomfortable!

Very comfortable aircraft, plenty of room in the budget class. Especially liked 2 rows on each side with a 2-sitters. Staff is helpful and friendly. Food was actually very tasty. Negative- no self service electronic check-in counters which make the line much longer than could have been otherwise; outdated entertainment screens with limited choice of movies . Otherwise our experience was very pleasant and 9 hours passed without difficulty

Luggage is limited and the process for payment is convoluted. The crew is racist. Questioned why we were in upper class

There is no phone charging port on the plane. The infotainment system screen is small. The seats are very uncomfortable.

Fine; flight schedule was changed the day before but they sent email and called me. They took care of the rearranged connecting flight well.

my tv was a bit broken, and so was table, so the food would keep falling, as the table was loose. they weight the carry on, and make me take out 3 magazines from the carryon, given it was minimally over the 10pound limit (which was a bit ridiculous)

I had an 9 hr layover continuing on to Ushuaia. I expected to have to get my luggage & do customs but I did not expect Aerolinas Argentinas to make me sit with all of my luggage for 7 hours in the entrance part of the airport before they would let us re-check our bags & get back in where there are seats. People were sitting on the floor everywhere.

Aerilineas changed my airport from aero parque to Ezeiza and didn’t take care of my transport. Seats were mediocre and ground personal weren’t very helpful. Too bad that’s the only option to fly to El calafate. Bad service, bad company

I liked the airport and aircraft crew. I disliked the fact that I and TSA pre check approved but this airline is not affiliated to the program. I was 4 hours befor departure and I barely made it to the gate. The airline does not allow to buy extra luggage online. After waiting 1 hour and 45 minutes to check in my luggage I had to do another line to pay my luggage with another hour of waiting. Only one airline person to process payment. This is ridiculous and I saw so many elderly people struggling in line waiting long hours.
