    Regarding the volcanic ashes, the problem with traveling is to take flights, you can still travel from a venue to another on the road(bus, car, etc), however as far as I know by the time being the only conflictive venues with that are Buenos Aires(only the final will be played there) and La Plata, the rest seem to be fine, even Mendoza and San Juan which are the closer ones to the volcano. And by the time the cup starts the ashes may be gone.

    From Retiro to Buenos Aires its going to be anywhere from 120-160 pesos (30-40 U$S) depending on what line you take.

    Not sure what kind of hotel you plan on staying in, but heres a link to the holiday inn in santa fe

    for Argentina vs. Colombia theres no chance you'd be able to buy tickets day of the game. Maybe, through the reventa, but it would be risky to go all the way to santa fe then have no luck.

    :(


    Damn it...plans are ruined....Obviously I have no experience traveling.













    I'm going to see if I can get a few days off for the Bolivia game....I don't know if travelling to Ju Juy is a good idea for my jobs sake. I can only have 3 or 4 days off.

    Que buena noticia que se reanuden los vuelos a B's A's.

    Mi vuelo sale de California el 5 de Julio con escalas en Lima, y Santiago de Chile, y de Santiago un vuelo corto a Mendoza. A ver como me va.:rolleyes:

    I have checked a couple of newsplaces from Mendoza and, differently from the ones of Buenos Aires, they don't even mention the ashes in their headlines, evidently they have no troubles with the flights in there, more likely beachesl can confirm this. Also probably by the time of your flight the ashes may be gone from the affected areas involved in the Copa América, as far as I can tell it's mostly Buenos Aires and La Plata.

    Yeah, 2 to 3 weeks is a long time for things to change, no way we can say now.

    The ashes have not reached Mendoza, the winds just have not blown this way.

    Funny-strange, airports closed in Australia because of the ash, but no ash in El Bolson, 100 kms south of hard hit Bariloche. Depends on the air currents at the time.

    ------------------

    Today from LAN webpage:

    http://www.lan.com/en_us/sitio_personas/news/news-item/lan-flights-continue-as-normal

    LAN flights continue as normal
    Friday, June 17, 2011, last updated at 00:00 local time in Santiago, Chile, 00:00 hrs. local time in Miami, United States.

    As a result of the movement of volcanic ash from the Cordon Caulle chain, LAN’s flights continue as normal and flights to/ from both airports in Buenos Aires (Ezeiza and Aeroparque), as well as in the rest of the American continent, have been successfully resumed.

    At present, only flights to/from Auckland in New Zealand and Sydney in Australia remain cancelled due to the position of this cloud and to the forecast for the ash’s movement. The company is constantly monitoring developments in the meteorological conditions to be able to resume affected flights and will update the status of its operations during the next few hours.

    To find out which flights are affected, we are asking passengers to check this section, which will be kept permanently updated:

    See details of affected international flights
    See details of affected domestic flights in Argentina

    Late interest in going to Copa America. I have no tickets yet, I plan to go there for the final week and watch both Semis and the Final.

    What are my chances of finding these tickets, and where? I don't mind paying over face value for tickets, but I want to make sure they will be available wherever.

    If anyone has any idea please let me know.

    Thanks
