As a previous 15-year homeowner of property near Pinamar, I highly recommend you rent anytime you want to stay near the beach. Owning a home in that area is not only expensive to buy, but also to maintain. The gardener, cleaning lady, roof repair guy (because the roof will leak, I promise you)...

Buenos Aires - not for the faint hearted Just in case anyone with romantic ideas is reading this thread…

It sounds odd, but you actually check them as cargo. I believe we paid about $125 each way for our dog. We had an extra large crate so she had plenty of room to move around. If you have a large crate (or even in general), you will need to call the airline and confirm that their cargo hold and...

I did the exact same thing with my dog using Delta and LAN (back in the day). No problems at all. We showed up about three hours before the flight, and they took our dog out during the layover. I'd be tempted not to fly American just for this reason. My dog had no problems.

Salad dressings that aren’t easy to make to taste like at home….Caesar, blue cheese, ranch, etc. Maple syrup Spices that aren’t super common (dill for me) Nuts that aren’t peanuts

I wrote this on a previous thread but it fits here. It was a challenge to find the Covid travel coverage so here’s what I found… My insurance was checked by the airline in the US, and they did check it closely. My regular insurance does cover Covid, but there was nothing written they could...

Don’t forget it will have to be apostilled with a stamp, signature and a sticker. And somehow you’ll have to do it all at Migraciones.

Yes, I noticed too that you can't use Verifly to arrive into Argentina. I used it to fly from Argentina to the US. They have a list of countries that accept it on the app, many of them in South America. Hopefully, Argentina will be added soon, since our check in for BA was a pain.

Until we have electronic health passes like they do in Europe, it will continue to be easy to falsify paper documents. Plus, the current challenge of getting fast Covid tests I’m sure makes people cut corners. I can’t imagine doing that and putting others at risk, especially older people and...

Heading to the US from EZE on American and used VeriFLY app for the first time. Wow, what a difference. It took a little time to upload everything, but at the airport there was a separate VeriFLY check in area with no line and only had to show passports. Also, we could check in online, very...

Yes, hard to find appointments and get guaranteed turnaround. Here’s what we used. They have locations at major airports and some downtown areas. They also take some kinds of insurance, since it’s not cheap. We did the 12-hour PCR test and got it back in 8. Glad we did because our first flight...

Is it true that a flight delay doesn’t affect your 24-hour test window? I had heard we could get the test done anytime on Sunday even though our flight isn’t until 11:50pm on Monday, but it’s hard to find confirmation of the official latest rules. If our flight to the US got hugely delayed or...

Thank you all…this is really helpful. If I find any other place that works, I’ll report back. Yes, at this point the US only requires an antigen test.

I need to schedule a pre-flight covid test to fly to the US. My flight leaves late on a Monday, so I’m looking for something that morning, in case the flight is delayed into Tuesday. I’d prefer not to do it at EZE in case of any testing issues at the airport (I’ve had that problem once before)...

Also, on our flight, there were only about 5 people in front of us in the tourist arrival line, probably 90% of the flight were Argentines and residents just sailing through. So, immigration had plenty of time to ask for and look through all of our documents.

M My insurance was checked by the airline in the US, and they did check it closely. My regular insurance does cover Covid, but there was nothing written they could provide me that stated this clearly. Isolation is also a glitch. So, I bought supplemental travel insurance that came with a letter...

I came through EZE on the 29th, and Argentina immigration asked for the PCR test. Leaving the US, the airline asked for PCR, insurance and the PDF of the affidavit. I think it could depend on luck whether you get asked. I printed everything in case of phone glitches. I brought rapid antigen...

Yes, I remember that place too. Pretty overrated. Funny that it would show up on any list now.

Also returning to BA for the first time since covid. I have full coverage in the US (Kaiser), and I called them about getting a letter saying Covid was fully covered, and it is, but they said they don't have any document to send me that states this. Anyone else face this issue? Any recs? Thanks.

I'm glad to hear it sounds like fully vaccinated tourists have indeed been allowed to enter from November 1. Any stories to the contrary out there? Also, do tourists still have to show proof that their health insurance covers covid? I called my insurance carrier and they said they have never had...
