Potential impact on travel
Depending on the operational measures established by local authorities, travelers may experience:
- Higher demand and limited hotel availability
- Traffic restrictions and road closures
- Additional security controls
- Changes to transfers, transportation routes and sightseeing access
This may be particularly relevant in Buenos Aires, Córdoba, Montevideo, Lima and Cusco, which are frequently included in South American itineraries.
What agencies should consider
For clients traveling through Uruguay, Argentina or Peru between November 6 and 17, we recommend:
- Confirming accommodation and key services as early as possible
- Allowing additional flexibility for transfers and sightseeing
