Arrive relaxed and spend the first day
The first day in Buenos Aires… I get off the plane a bit exhausted after 18 hours of traveling. The sun is shining, it’s a pleasant 24 degrees outside, slightly cloudy. Buenos Aires welcomes me with open arms and a big smile.
ita Airways – Better another airline
I get off the plane with a full stomach from breakfast. Italian breakfast from ita Airways. What does that mean? Coffee, croissant and 3 sweets and tarts wrapped in plastic. The Italians… Pragmatic and so dolce!
Seat comfort
The seats are really uncomfortable compared to other airlines such as China Airlines. Hard, not particularly well separated from each other, even the viewing areas in the front rows are not screened off. Why is this – shall we say – suboptimal? Because sleeping without a sleep mask is difficult, at least for me, when the movie is flickering in front of me.
Give-aways
There were no giveaways, which in itself is not so bad, because who needs the 10th cosmetic bag? But a comfortable sleeping mask would have been great. I made do with my sweater, the sleeves of which I skillfully knotted around my eyes and over my head.
Culinary experience during the flight
The food was disappointing for an Italian airline. I had pasta in a tomato sauce. I also had a piece of cake and a small focaccia with rosemary and a salad. You already know the breakfast.
Service quality
The service was great! Always a smile on their faces and multilingual, alternating between Spanish, Italian and English.
And how is it now, the first day in Buenos Aires?
