While our British Airways flight to Buenos Aires was free of delays and any technical problems, the cabin service was extremely poor. They had reassigned our seats - and many others - so that they could close off one cabin and reduce the number of cabin crew. As a result, the remaining crew seemed unable to cope with providing their normal service - nothing close to the level of service on our recent Qatar flight sectors.
Linda found herself next to an expatriate Scot who had left Ibrox 40 years ago and worked in a winery in Mendoza. I think their conversation began with complaints about the cabin service but by the time we landed she had heard his life history.
Arriving 30 minutes ahead of schedule should have been a bonus but meant that we reached the immigration hall at the same time as all the other overnight european flights and spent 90 minutes queueing to get our passports stamped - at least the baggage was sitting on the carousel when we got through.
We're staying in San Telmo which is one of the older parts of the city in a boutique hotel where design appears to have won the battle with function. It all looks very smart but doesn't work as you might expect. Still, the staff are very friendly and helpful and it is in a great location.
