Esquel Brigadier Antonio Parodi International Airport — Esquel, Argentina

EQS identifies Esquel Brigadier Antonio Parodi International Airport, serving Esquel in Chubut Province, Argentina, at the foot of the Andes in Argentine Patagonia. Despite its international designation, EQS primarily handles domestic flights connecting Esquel to Buenos Aires and other Patagonian cities, supporting tourism to the nearby Los Alerces National Park and the historic La Trochita narrow-gauge steam railway. The surrounding region draws hikers, fishermen, and nature tourists to its lakes, forests, and mountain landscapes. Winter can bring challenging weather conditions typical of Patagonian aviation, and the airport's relatively short runway and location suit the smaller aircraft commonly used on Argentine regional routes into this scenic but remote corner of the country.
