Argentina Volcano Chaiten
Posted: Sat May 10, 2008 07:22 PM UTC
Hi everyone, Hola a todos,

Has anyone got any information on the about the Chaiten eruption in Chile?
I'm going to San Carlos de Bariloche (July) and I read some airports were closed. Aerolineas Argentinas seem to say that Neuquen and Esquel airports are closed due to smoke.

¿Alguien tiene màs informacion sobre el volcan Chaìten? Voy a San Carlos de Bariloche (julio) y leo que unos aeropuertos estan cerrados. AA dicen que aeropuertos Neuquen y Esquel estan cerrados por razon del humo.

Many thanks, muchas gracias
David

You might be better asking the airport operator directly here is the link

Currently they are showing all flights into Bariloche as being canceled.
Sorry guy, maybe the bus, book a cama seat, almost as good as the lie flat seats in business class :)

I guess it's too early to tell. You're going in July, so that's another 2 months. If the volcano calms down I suppose you won't have a problem, but if the eruptions continue you might have to look into othre possibilities...

Good luck !
