If you are buying a ticket you might want to consider Buenos Aires Aeroparque J. Newbery (AEP); it is the downtown airport in BA; probably much closer to the cruise port. EZE is out in the sticks.

FedEx flies an MD11/10 to EZE on Friday evenings, we arrive in EZE about 2245. So you could jumpseat to VCP and then on to EZE.
If that's not convenient you could jumpseat to VCP, we arrive (Tuesday through Friday) about 1700, and then pax to EZE. Try Azul, the new Jet Blue clone, I think they fly to EZE.

I hope cargo airlines (mainly FDX and UPS since non-scheds follow other rules) will be able to accept international jumpseats one day so we can reciprocate the favor so many of us have been able to enjoy on pax carriers...

By the way, the Japanese do the same to us and I'm totally OK with it because they're actually very efficient but also friendly and polite when we arrive as opposed to our TSA hoodlums who often act like uneducated punks when foreign travelers arrive...

Each time I come back from Europe and go through JFK I'm just ashamed to see how Customs & Immigration and the TSA mistreat the tourists arriving to our nation...
