Travel out of Argentina has just got more expensive:

And for non residents, sounds like dollars only?

I'm trying to understand how this new rule impacts me. I am a tourist, my girlfriend is a resident. If we travel, how can we avoid this 20% tax?
If I pay cash/pesos?
If she pays with her credit card?
Any suggestions?

If you pay in cash, just have your girlfriend buy your ticket. I bet you can get around the fee like that.
