Sunglass Hut

Gate-side eyewear fix at Aeroparque

Sunglass Hut at Aeroparque Jorge Newbery (AEP) sits airside in the main departures area, handy if you realize at 10:00 that your 11:30 flight to Córdoba is going to be bright in seat 3A. It’s a compact storefront, so you can scan the whole wall of frames in under five minutes and still make boarding from the domestic gates.

Prices skew to international brands, with many frames in the ARS equivalent of roughly USD 120–250, plus some premium models above that. You’ll see the usual global labels along one wall and sport-focused styles on another, so it’s realistic to compare at least 20–30 models without leaving the shop. Airport markups apply, but frequent flyers say prices track other Sunglass Hut locations in major cities.

Staff typically float between one or two customers at a time and can size or adjust frames on the spot in just a couple of minutes. If you already know your model number from a pair at home, bring it; they often have the same line in different lens colors, which saves hunting through every rack. Cases and cleaning cloths are included with most purchases, so you leave ready to wear them straight to the gate.

Plan 10–15 minutes here if you want to try on a dozen pairs and still grab a coffee before a domestic boarding call at AEP; it’s an easy add if your flight is showing “on time” but you’re already past security.
