Mar Del Plata Airport

Mar del Plata Airport, officially Astor Piazzolla International Airport, opened in the 1940s and today operates a compact single-terminal facility that handles mainly domestic and seasonal international traffic to Argentina’s Atlantic coast. As the city’s principal airport it’s busiest in the summer months when tourists flock to beaches and resorts, yet remains easy to navigate for quick connections. Located a short drive from downtown Mar del Plata, it’s linked by regular buses, airport shuttles, taxis and the main coastal highway, making transfers straightforward. Fares tend to be affordable for domestic travelers but can spike in peak season; carriers serving the airport include Aerolíneas Argentinas and low-cost operators such as Flybondi and JetSMART, although it’s not a major airline hub.
