Transfer at Buenos Aires Airport

Buenos Aires

Ministro Pistarini Airport officially has 3 terminals - A, B, C - but this marking has no meaning for passengers.

In reality, however, it is one large connected building that can be crossed on foot in about 10 minutes. The airport is compact and relatively uncluttered.

There are two arrival halls - international and domestic - and two departure halls.
