Why Fly Private
Buenos Aires is typically a long-haul flight from North America and Europe, and commercial options often involve inconvenient connections or red-eye schedules. A private jet allows you to set your own departure time, rest comfortably en route, and arrive refreshed. Aeroparque's city-center location is an enormous advantage — it is closer to luxury hotels than any comparable airport in South America.
Private Jet Experience
For regional arrivals, land at Aeroparque Jorge Newbery right in the heart of the city, just minutes from Palermo and Recoleta. International long-haul flights touch down at Ezeiza International where a dedicated FBO expedites customs. A chauffeured Audi A8 delivers you to the Four Seasons or Alvear Palace in under forty-five minutes from Ezeiza, or under ten from Aeroparque.
