The ask 32 different questions to deflect attention from the few important ones. ( How you paid for the ticket).
The trouble is most of these airlines do not collect this data in other countries, so there is no system in place. More reason for other airlines to close shop here, so air Campora can take over Argentina with their crappy service and planes.
So come on Pagotroll, earn your pesos and respond to this.
Remember a couple of years ago at the airport they were making Argentines show and record the serial numbers of every single laptop, camera, tablet etc. and it had to match on their return. Us foreigners were waved through.

@6. national Passenger Names Registry. Is it possible for a non-argie to get on that Registry? I wonder how many times the airlines will just make it up? What happens when a flight is cancelled and all the passengers are transferred to another flight? Will they have to wait 3 days? And no popping down to the airport, buying a ticket and away. Which airlines will lose business? How many people will cross a border to fly from somewhere else?

Sep 26th, 2014 - 09:16 pm - Link - Report abuse 0Dear Sir,
FYI
these new set of“Argentinean Rules” are not other that the new set of International Rules agreed upon last year?...
-No, they aren't associated with the API (advanced passenger information) agreement from WCO/IATA/ICAO; they are much, much more extensive; and in my humble opinion, utterly unworkable. But we shall see; don't expect it to be implemented verbatim, expecially relative to the 72 hour timeline.
As far as I know, Canada and the USA implemented them last week...
-No they didn't.
An honest mistake, I'm sure.
Some years ago, an American astronomer, who was originally from the former East Germany, told an assembled group in La Serena about the old GDR procedures as well as interviews he was required to go through each time he traveled to an international conference. When he bolted from one in Belgrade, he had less than USD30 to get across the Yugoslavian border. Argentina seems to each day remove the rights of its citizens.

Sep 26th, 2014 - 10:56 pm - Link - Report abuse 0Dear Sir,
Two: True, but the important word there is relevant.
It's probably a moot point, but for the sake of accuracy, when they state frequent flyer info, the PNR (whether push or pull) transfer only contains a FF passenger's account number and sometimes their flying preferences (not the passengers FF account balance). Many airlines do not actually own their associated frequent flyer program (and as such do not know their passenger's individual balances; most of their revenue comes via banking and credit card and partner contracts); many programs were sold-off because unused frequent flyer points are considered a debt liability during auditing, and so do not look good on their financial statements. Flight PNR information being sent to the respective authorities is constantly updated and is usually not considered finalized until after the flight has closed, or sometimes finished (luggage currently isn't part of the PNR transfer, regardless).
I believe that the above article is mistaken (I haven't had the opportunity to read Resolution 3667; I can't seem to find a link to the original); it cannot be asking for all the standard PNR information 72 hours prior to flying; that would be very, very impractical, if not impossible.
So, just more wishful 'Think ing', nothing more.

Sep 27th, 2014 - 02:21 am - Link - Report abuse 0They don't have a high inflation rate because the bankers are in full control of Europe. They are the real rulers there, not the people.
Since it makes no sense for bankers to have inflation that erodes their previous made loans, they create DEFLATION, so that they make even more of a profit on the debts owed to them. In countries were there is no deflation, they simply either fix the interest rate market to make more money, or manipulate the exchange rates. If none of those are possible, they simply ask for bailouts.
North America and Europe are neo-monarchies ruled by a pecuniary Elite.

Queen Evita II is not a neo-monarch, and she is poor, and is doing good things for Argentina. Life is super there, because of CFK and her genius boyfriend Kicillof.
I always find it quite revealing and damning that whenever I talk about the EUian or NorthAmoan economy, history, or crime, the validation and justification for their superiority is made by comparing them to Argentina's.
Sep 27th, 2014 - 04:09 am - Link - Report abuse 0Given the general opinion of Argentina's level, and its alleged standing in the grand scheme of the universe held by people here, singing the praises of any system or nation by adducing their statistics to show their standing above Argentina is wholly underwhelming.
It would be like demonstrating the superiority of someone's education by snatching a 4-year old from a nearby parent and preening oneself based on the comparison.
Hardly impressing anyone.
@29 We didn't forget, that's why the military is not coming back. Not for a long time. In their current state I doubt they can even make a coup. Our concerns now are the narcos and the mafias the government backs. The Peronists learned to outsource most of their dirty work.

To give you a clue, Lan Chile and other long haul airlines from the UK fly to the Islands.
If there was an imaginary as opposed to a real airport airport there, they couldn't land there, could they?
The Argentine security measures are a chance to delay airlines with functioning aircraft, to give a chance for Maximo airlines to:
1/- Fix their aircraft so they are airworthy.
2/-Give Maximo enough time to take a dump, so he is light enough to, board Argy Airlines to enable the aircraft to take off with it's maximum all up weight.
@87 : I think you will find that any similar sized area of Patagonia is also populated by the same number of people .

This article is further proof thatthe Argentine Gov. is struggling in a morrass of its own making. Nothing to do with the Falklands, LAN Chile et al.

The trolls are 'on the ropes' and they know it. They should persecute their agenda with Cristina, not here. They are responsible for their own Gov.
No-one else.
@71 As far as I know the goon squads don't kidnap people and don't have concentration camps. They just kill people in broad daylight.
