Volcanic ash cloud grounds more flights,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych]
"All flights by Aerolineas Argentinas and Austral have been cancelled until midday,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych]," an airport official said as Argentina marks the Copa America competition which has been drawing thousands of football fans.
Seven international arrivals and nine departures from abroad were also shelved due to Chile's Puyehue volcano which has upended air travel and tourism since it erupted in early June for the first time in five decades,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych].
Airports in the resort town of Bariloche and the Patagonian hub Neuquen have remained closed since June 4 after winds spread the volcanic ash across much of southern Argentina,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], intermittently grounding commercial flights and airports in and around the country's capital.
Flights from airports across South America - including hubs in Montevideo,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], the Chilean capital Santiago and southern Brazilian cities - have also been hit as ash clouds,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], swept around the Southern Hemisphere to linger over Australia and New Zealand.
Puyehue,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], which rumbled to life early this month for the first time since 1960,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], is high in the Andes mountains,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], 870 kilometres south of Santiago and near the border with Argentina.
On Monday Argentine President Cristina Kirchner announced a slew of economic measures to mitigate the effects of the ash,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych].
Citing a "real tragedy" in Argentina caused by the volcano,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], Ms Kirchner said the government would double social benefits,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], as well as defer tax payments and obligations for the hardest-hit Andean cities and towns,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], including the skiing resort city of Bariloche and Villa La Angostura in the Andes.
The Patagonia mountain range in southwestern Argentina,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], home to both cities,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], was declared an environmental disaster area after a massive layer of volcanic ash was dumped there following an eruption.
Argentina is also playing host to the Copa America - the world's oldest international football tournament dating back to 1916 - which has been dubbed a continental finishing school for the World Cup.
