With the increase in air connectivity, Aerolíneas Argentinas, Gol, Azul and Sky Airlines have reinforced their operations to meet the growing demand during the snowy months.
More flight options to Bariloche
This winter, tourists will have several options for flying directly from Brazil to Bariloche or with strategic connections. Aerolíneas Argentinas, for example, has increased its frequencies and will offer direct flights between Buenos Aires and Bariloche from July 2 to August 29, connecting to 26 weekly flights departing from São Paulo and another 26 from Rio de Janeiro. In addition, cities such as Brasília, Curitiba, Porto Alegre and Salvador will also have direct connections with the Argentine capital, allowing for a faster arrival to the snow destination.
Gol also reinforced its operations to Bariloche, connecting the Argentine city to 13 Brazilian capitals, including Belo Horizonte, Florianópolis, Recife and Salvador.
Azul, starting June 30, will have five weekly direct flights from Campinas (Viracopos), in addition to launching routes from Confins (Belo Horizonte) and Porto Alegre, with two weekly frequencies each. These flights will be operated with Airbus A320 aircraft, with capacity for 174 passengers.
For those looking for stopover options, Sky Airlines will offer flights to Bariloche via Santiago (SCL), operating on Tuesdays, Thursdays, Saturdays and Sundays, between June 17 and September 28. Departure times vary between morning and evening, offering passengers flexibility.
Infrastructure and experience in the snow
With the reinforcement of the air network, Bariloche is further consolidating itself as one of the most accessible winter destinations in South America. The city's international airport, located just 20 minutes from the city center, will be the main gateway for those seeking unique experiences in the snow, whether skiing at Cerro Catedral, exploring trails on snowmobiles or simply enjoying the icy landscape with a cup of hot chocolate.
Increased air connectivity reinforces Bariloche’s tourism potential, making it easier and faster for Brazilians to access one of the most iconic winter settings in Patagonia. With several flight options and an infrastructure ready to welcome visitors, the season promises to be one of the busiest in recent years.
