Buenos Aires Cruise arrival – earliest feasible flight from AEP?

So thanks to the nice people at Air New Zealand cancelling our flight home the day we arrive in BA, we now have two extra days to fill, so plan B is to go to Iguassu falls for two nights.

 

We will be disembarking from the Seabourn Quest which is scheduled to dock at 7am on Thursday the 20th of December. LATM have two flights to Iguassu from the nearby Aeroparque Jorge Newbery, one at 10.20am and one at 11.35am. Normally I would book the 11.35am but given the many reports about flight delays and cancellations I am wondering if I should try to go for the 10.20am so that we still have a fall back to the 11.35am if there is a problem. There are further flights but they are all much later in the day and would wreck our schedule.

 

Just to add to the fun, the last time we arrived into BA the cruise terminal was abject pandemonium and it took a while to find our pre-booked pick-up. LATM domestic check in appears to be one and a half hours before the flight. So if we cannot leave the ship until (being optimistic) 8am then making an 8.50am check in at AEP may be too tight. On the plus side though, Google says the journey time should be only about 18 minutes on a weekday morning, so on paper it may be feasible.

 

So that all boils down to two questions for those with any relevant experience or local knowledge;

  1. Is a 10.20am flight way too optimistic to book for a departure from AEP?
  2. Can anybody suggest an ultra reliable transfer provider?
