Passengers can arrive at this airport from various international destinations including Europe, Caribbean and many other countries in South America. Passengers arriving from other continents in the world can only connect with this airport through one of the connecting hub airports in South America.
Since Argentina is a country with massive land proportions being South America’s second biggest country a visit here should be planned meticulously. Especially, close attention is needed for your ground transportation arrangements after arriving at the Cordoba Airport. If you are in the process of figuring out your onward journey the airport provides plenty of options.
You can choose a suitable mode of transport from buses, taxis and hire cars depending on your budget, taste and normal travel practices. Normal buses run from the airport to the Cordoba city center and it is a good choice for those travelling with a light budget and luggage. However, for those travelling in groups and having more luggage, the best mode of travelling to the city center as well as to destinations beyond is to reserve a rental car. Hire cars can be arranged at the airport premises by contacting any of the rental car agency booths at the terminal.
While a hire car is one of the best ways to explore Argentina at your own pace it may not be the feasible option for everyone. Bus travel is the cheapest option for getting around in any part of the country. Bus rides are fairly comfortable. The main bus terminal is in the downtown core of Cordoba and from here passengers can transfer to bordering international destinations as well. The Intercity train network is another popular mode of transportation as it connects people to all major cities in the country. Many tourists prefer trains to buses as there are tourist trains taking exceptionally scenic routes when commuting between major cities.
Cordoba is the country’s central point for arts and related learning. The city is home to many universities, museums and cultural theatres. The city has a rich academic history and is nicknamed as La Docta meaning doctorate. If you are visiting Cordoba with a rental car arranged at the Cordoba Airport don’t forget to visit some of these fun places in the city such as the Art Deco, Captain Blue XL, Cine Club Municipal Hugo del Carril, Jesuit Crypt and the lively market at Mercado Norte.
