Future international flights

Quote from Splinter

That doesn't explain this move by the Arg government which hasn't even given a plausible argument either. Whether airlines fly half empty planes or not, trying to keep their slots or pilots and hours, is no concern of any government, so I ask again - conspiracies aside, why?

There's been a lot of angry customers in Europe who have had their tickets to most world destinations cancelled yet weeks and months later are still waiting to be refunded. The airlines were giving them vouchers rather than cash which has now been ruled a no no.

Whether this Governments decision to stop tickets being sold is because of that is anyones guess. Protecting Aerolines comes well down my list of reasons. Noone I know would ever want to fly with them....they don't fly to the UK anyway do they?

Avianca is/was a bloody decent airline .

I have traveled to Miami (Via Bogota ) with them and also to Madrid

better than average service

Just tried to call Delta to ask about our New Orleans - EZE flight. Was informed by the recording that my wait time to speak with an agent would be 7 hours and 32 minutes.

Delta was one of the pioneers of the technology that allowed customers to receive a callback instead of waiting. Apparently they now prefer to filter their calls in a Darwinian way.

Try Twitter if they have an account.

actually stick on twitter that they asked you to hold for seven hours and I bet they get back to you quickly.

There's something about Twitter that I just don't get. I have an account but never use it because it doesn't light my fire.

You have to follow a few people . News , sports , economics or such and you get a whole lot of quick news which you then read on other websites.

Its also great to complain in to shops and airlines and such . They get right back to you and listen to what you have to say. I used to have no joy at complaining to Cablevision until I mentioned how bad the customer service was on Twitter and they always came back within 30 minutes to sort the problem out.

That’s the best argument I’ve heard, in favor of Twitter .

I suppose the more followers you have, the quicker the response!

The first thing they say is , can we take this to private messaging.

I always say yes and the first thing I tell them in private is , " If you let me down I will publish the full conversation publicly."

The Aeroparque renovation plan is not only to the terminal building but a runway extension to allow the A330 to use the airport .

All quite strange as this was not in the original budget plans of the government.

The Ezeiza start up date is still planned for 1st September , but that will depend on how the pandemic develops locally and in the main destination markets.

Still hearing rumours about domestic flights starting up earlier but I feel the government are nervous about the situation in the Villas and wont permit anything until that is under control

Iberia has announced it will start to fly from Madrid to Montevideo at the beginning of July.

Still no way to get to Uruguay at the moment.
