Every flight is quoted individually based on date, aircraft and availability. Whole aircraft, with our own crew.
Flying to Mendoza
Mendoza lies just across the Andes, a short hop from Santiago. Flying private avoids the Cristo Redentor road pass, often closed by snow in winter, and takes you straight to the wineries of Luján de Cuyo and the Uco Valley.
When to go
All year round. Harvest, from February to April, is the best time to visit the wineries; in winter, flying is the alternative when the road pass is closed.
Good to know
Luján de Cuyo and Maipú are 30 to 40 minutes from the airport; the Uco Valley a little over an hour by car. Many guests go and come back the same day or stay one night. Argentina controls the entry of fresh food, and back in Chile the SAG requires plant and animal products to be declared; wine is subject to the Chilean customs allowance.
