Buenos Aires Ministro Pistarini Airport Guide

Taryn White
November 1, 2024

Ministro Pistarini International Airport (EZE) in Buenos Aires, often referred to as Ezeiza International Airport, is one of the primary gateways to the Argentine capital and the largest international airport in the country. Situated about 14 miles southwest of Buenos Aires, it is the principal international airport for the city and its metropolitan area, alongside Aeroparque Internacional Jorge Newbery (AEP).

Spanning approximately 13 square miles, Ezeiza International Airport handles the majority of Argentina's international air traffic and serves as a hub for Aerolíneas Argentinas. The airport facilitates both international and domestic flights, although Newbery is the primary airport for domestic and regional flights from the capital. This complete guide to EZE has all the expert tips you need to make the most of your experience here.

Reaching Ezeiza International Airport from the US

Traveling from the US to Buenos Aires is generally straightforward, with nonstop flights available from 4 major American airports – Miami, New York (JFK), Houston and Atlanta – directly to Ezeiza International Airport.

However, reaching other cities within Argentina becomes more complicated. You will often face the inconvenience of transferring from Ezeiza International Airport to Aeroparque Internacional Jorge Newbery to catch a domestic flight, which can add more time as well as an additional layer of complexity to the journey.

Getting to and from EZE

After exiting baggage claim at Ezeiza International Airport, there are several options to reach downtown Buenos Aires. One convenient choice is to secure a taxi at the designated taxi stand. The travel time is typically just under an hour, depending on the traffic.

Taxis and remis

Apart from traditional taxis, there is also the option of using a "remis." A remis is a private car with a driver that takes passengers to their chosen destination. Unlike taxis, which use a meter to calculate fares, remises offer set prices based on the distance between the pick-up and drop-off locations. These fares must be prepaid online or at one of the official company desks.

Both taxis and remis have passenger pick-up and drop-off areas next to the terminal entrances.

Rideshares

For those who prefer ridesharing services, Uber and Cabify operate from the airport. However, be aware that high demand can make it challenging to locate your ride due to the lack of designated rideshare drop-off and pick-up spots. When visiting Buenos Aires, I prefer rideshare services, given their fixed price and payment options, even though there are no designated meeting points at the airport.

Public transportation

Public transportation is another alternative, with the availability of bus line 8 connecting the airport to central areas like Plaza de Mayo and Congress. This budget-friendly option may take up to 2 hours due to frequent stops. Private bus services, like Tienda Leon or Mini Bus Ezeiza, are also available, offering routes from the airport to various locations in Buenos Aires.

It's advisable to double-check the schedules, especially on weekends and public holidays, as availability might differ. Each transportation choice has pros and cons, so it's important to consider factors such as cost, travel time and convenience when deciding.

Car rental

Several car rental companies operate at Ezeiza International Airport, including Hertz, Enterprise Rent-A-Car, Budget and Avis. However, I don’t recommend driving in Buenos Aires due to traffic congestion, an aggressive driving culture and poor road conditions.

Security lines at Ezeiza International Airport

Ezeiza International Airport entry requirements are straightforward. Argentina's visa policy permits citizens from more than 120 countries, including the US and Canada, to enter the country without a tourist visa for stays of less than 90 days. Essential requirements include a passport valid for at least 6 months and, potentially, proof of sufficient funds and a return ticket. Other nationalities can check specific entry conditions on the Argentina Tourism website.

While I have found Ezeiza International Airport customs and security processes uneventful, some travelers complain of slower check-in, security and arrival procedures, often lasting more than an hour. Additionally, passengers on US-bound flights face a secondary screening at the gate, which includes disposing of any liquids exceeding 100 milliliters, including those purchased at the airport. Preparing for these steps helps ensure a smoother experience.

EZE dining options

The airport offers a diverse selection of eateries including fast-food chains, casual dining spots and coffee shops. For those looking for one last bit of Argentine cuisine, Florida Garden and Havanna Café offer everything from Argentine coffee to alfajores – a beloved local sweet treat. Brioche Dorée caters to diverse dietary needs, providing gluten-free and vegetarian options along with a children's menu for younger travelers.

With several locations in the city, including Ezeiza International Airport, Pizza Zen is a popular local chain serving artisanal pizzas and empanadas. For familiar options, global chains such as McDonald’s, Burger King, Starbucks and Outback Steakhouse have locations at the airport.

While I appreciate the mix of international and local brands at Ezeiza International Airport, I often choose places that offer lighter, easily portable dishes I can enjoy on the plane, such as croissants, fruit and snacks. Le Pain Quotidien and local chain La Panera Rosa are my go-to options. They serve a varied menu with sweet and savory options such as coffee, pastries and sandwiches.

Airport lounges

There are 8 airport lounges spread across Ezeiza International Airport's 3 terminals. Many of these lounges allow entry through the purchase of a day pass or via membership programs, and each offers a selection of snacks and beverages, comfortable seating and complimentary Wi-Fi.

There are 2 24-hour Aeropuertos VIP Club lounges operating at the airport. The American Airlines Admirals Club & Iberia VIP Lounge grants access to travelers who either pay a fee, present a qualifying American Airlines ticket or are part of a participating lounge membership program.

Entry to the Centurion Lounge requires a valid American Express platinum card or membership in an applicable lounge program. The Star Alliance Lounge and LATAM VIP Lounge are both open 24 hours a day. These lounges, along with the Aerolíneas Argentinas Salon Condor and the Ezeiza Lounge, maintain access requirements and provide amenities comparable to the other airport lounges.

Wi-Fi and other services at Ezeiza International Airport

The airport offers complimentary Wi-Fi, though users may occasionally encounter spotty connectivity. The airport also contains various charging stations and ports.

If you’re interested in shopping for unique items you can explore a variety of specialty stores, such as HStern for jewelry and Los Robles Polo Team and Pequeneces for clothing. The airport also has several international chains like Victoria’s Secret, Sunglass Hut and MAC. In addition, there are several newsstands, duty-free stores and bookstores for those seeking snacks, beverages and magazines.

Things to do during a layover

For travelers with long layovers, exploring the city is a very convenient option due to the airport's left luggage center, located on the lower level of Terminal A. There are also lockers in Terminal A. Both services offer convenient fee-based storage for luggage, which is particularly useful for those who want to visit Buenos Aires without the burden of heavy suitcases.

Though the airport is approximately 1 hour from the city, taking a taxi or an Uber to explore notable sites like La Recoleta cemetery, La Boca barrio, Puerto Madero or the Evita Perón Museum is well within reach. Or skip Buenos Aires altogether and travel 45 minutes to less-visited Tigre, a picturesque seaside city famous for the Paraná Delta, one of the world's largest deltas.

If you don’t want to travel an hour away during a long layover, another option is taking a short car ride from the airport to the Plaza Canning shopping mall. The stores here offer a broad range of shopping options, including boutique clothing shops that feature both local designers and international brands, as well as artisanal goods that showcase traditional Argentine craftsmanship. While you can shop in the airport, too, it’s a change of scenery that’s easy to reach with some additional variety.
