Yes, but this is not a public bus transport. This is a special bus, to go from the airport to the venue. It's a bus that is expected to have space for baggages and stuff. I contacted them, to know how accessible they are, and they said that they are used to taking people with wheel-chairs. But is it ok for you to get out of the chair for the trip? Or do you need the kind of buses that allow you to stay in the chair inside the bus? (we have some of those in Argentina).
Is difficuilt to go to a bus with that. Usually a taxi is a best option.
Well, the same company that manages the buses also has a taxi, a minivan (12 people) and a van (20 people) option, so I guess that there will be an option that will be ok. Obviously the less people that go in the transport, the more expensive that the trip is per-person.

By plane again?
As explained in the webpage, to go to Mar del Plata by plane, you need to switch airports. Buenos Aires has an International Airport which is 45 minutes (by car / bus) away from the Domestic Airport. Going by plane means: arrive at the international airport, take a car/bus to the domestic airport, wait, take a plane, take a car/bus to the hotel. With the waiting and the taking of cars/buses, the final duration of the whole trip wouldn't be much less than just taking the bus from the International Airport, and you would be jumping from one thing to the other, which does not seem very comfortable to me. -- Besos, Marga _______________________________________________ Debconf-team mailing list [email protected] http://lists.debconf.org/mailman/listinfo/debconf-team
