Ezeiza is Argentina's main international gateway, with two terminals (A and C) handling long-haul and regional traffic; Terminal A recently underwent renovation to expand capacity. It's the primary hub for Aerolíneas Argentinas' international network, distinct from the domestic-focused Aeroparque (AEP) closer to downtown.
