 Flying to Argentina:
We had no luck checking in for our flights on line, and the site advised us to arrive at the airport early. It was easy, quick process, so we were at the departure gate long before departure. Grabbed some lunch and relaxed. We boarded on time, but there was some  problem that delayed our take-off by nearly an hour. Since our turn around in Detroit was short anyway, when we found ourselves directed through a  long tunnel to another  terminal, we were concerned. However, boarding was just beginning when we found our gate, so no problem. And the plane was very sparsely-populated, so the flight to Atlanta was very comfortable. We had time there for a snack and an hour or more to relax. The plane to Buenos Aires was full, but fairly comfortable. I slept very little during the 10-hour flight, but Larry got in a few hours. Through all 3 flights we encountered people heading here to board a Viking excursion cruise to Antarctica and a few for a Norwegian cruise.
