@strickers – I can’t help with Argentina as it’s still languishing on my bucket list, however if you find F award seats, consider starting in DUB. I saved £600 on our outbound flight to MEX in November by starting at DUB, some of which is going to pay for a mini break there before the main holiday.
I kept our return in CW separate (and had the 50% avios refunded) so there’s no “recalculation” of taxes which might wipe out the saving!
There’s sadly no F to Buenos Aires, but there is to Santiago which is an option. The BA flight to EZE is currently via GIG on a rattly old 777, so it’s no longer to go via Madrid which is both cheaper and rather more comfortable on the newest A350.
