Hi all,
These are pictures from my flight from Buenos Aires to Montevideo. It's a short 45 minute long flight but a nice experience overall as the seats were very comfortable.
Buenos Aires Aeroparque is located right next to downtown BA and makes it avery convenient connection to the nearby cities instead of Ezeiza International, which is located very far.
Check in hall:
Some cool posters on the wall
Going upstairs towards security check- there are more shops and eateries upstairs landside rather than on the airside, which was a bit odd
Now airside, this was the only eatery in the international airside of the terminal.
Some plane spotting
Boarding
We were bused to our plane
I love the Aerolineas livery
Our plane
Awesome comfortable seats with great leg room
Taxing
You could not use the IFE during the flight though, maybe it is used for longer flights but for us they just showed the safety video in it
Take off- usually if you seat on the right side you get great views of downtown BA, but since the weather was a bit foggy most buildings were not visible
Still some nice downtown views
And Puerto Madero high rises
City of La Plata close to BA
A light snack was served shortly after
Shortly after we started our descent into Montevideo- you can see the city here
You can see the whole city here
And the Airport
Old terminal
The beautiful and very futuristic terminal of Montevideo
Walking towards immigration
Immigration
Baggage hall
A tour of the terminal- This airport is so beautiful in its design and very clean, the only thing is that it is very small as you can see in the pix but for sure has a nice ambiance and design
Check in hall
Roadside curb
There is an observation area on the upper level
Some touristic bonus pictures of Montevideo
Hope you enjoyed this FR :)
Very nice pictures, I loved how Bs As looked, Montevideo looked really charming. That first picture of the terminal in Carrasco looked like something out of a Science Fiction movie!
Thanks for sharing, saludos!
Thanks so much Chibcha. Yes, you are so right, the airport looks like a science fiction movie :)
Thanks for sharing another very nice and interesting report! I really love E190s, they're the most comfortable planes in Y in my opinion. Pretty cool to have seatback PTVs on a short flight on an E190! Amazing aerial shots or Buenos Aires and Montevideo, really very beautiful! I had no idea Montevideo had such a nice and modern airport--looks awesome. Great bonus pictures of Montevideo, it seems a little more rustic than Buenos Aires, but has an old world charm. Thanks for taking us on this trip of discovery!
Thanks so much Kevin. I'm glad you enjoyed the pictures. Yes the airport is very nice and the city as you mentioned has a more rustic look to it :)
Tell you what????
This report helped me decide between Buenos Aires and Montevideo.
Now I have a ticket to fly to Montevideo next July!!!
I can't wait!!
Thanks! :)
That's great but Buenos Aires is so much bigger and has so much more to see, If I had to choose between the 2 to visit I'd choose Buenos Aires for sure. But both cities are great and very close to each other.
LOL. May be next time!! XDDD
Can you believe that this is going to be the THIRD time I see Buenos Aires from the air??? The first time I was on my way from Santiago to Madrid. The second time I was on my way from Santiago to Florianópolis!! Now I will land there for some minutes at AEP, at least!!
I have nothing against Buenos Aires. It's just that it's so large that I will have to leave a whole month to enjoy the visit. :)
Oh ok, then :) Yes, BA is huge and you need at least a week to see all the areas.
That's great but in my opinion you should see both cities, but Buenos Aires has so much more to do than Montevideo and is a lovely city and you should not miss it. If I were to chose between one of them to visit, I'd choose BA :)
Hi again!
I came across your report again and thought I'd let you know that I eventually went to Montevideo, as I told you I was planning to do. You might have seen my reports here. Well, it was fantastic! I'm coming back next September because I made friends there, and I still have to visit some places.
Your pictures bring many nice memories now that I am familiar with all those places, so I enjoyed reading yor report twice as much this time!
Thanks again for sharing!
That is so great to hear Nechus. I'm very glad you had a great time and glad you enjoyed the report. Best wishes :)
