Sleeping inside or in nearby hotels at MDZ Airport

  Overnight layover guide: sleeping options in the public area and the boarding area

Spending the night at the airport

Mendoza Airport, although small, operates numerous flights and connections both domestically and to international destinations, so it is common to find passengers waiting for their flight even during the night. The terminal remains open 24 hours, but sleeping amenities are limited.

Where to rest: There are not many truly comfortable places to lie down; most seats are individual with armrests, although some benches in the check-in area may be somewhat more useful. Inside the terminal there is a VIP lounge, Mendoza by AMAE Lounge, located in the domestic flights boarding area, which offers armchairs, food, drinks, Wi‑Fi, and showers, but it only operates approximately between 7:00 am and 10:30 pm, so it is not available throughout the night.

Outside lounge hours, some passengers look for quieter corners, such as areas near the stairs or less busy sections on the first floor, so it is advisable to bring a sleeping bag or blankets if you plan to rest on the floor. If you prefer a bed, there are hostels and hotels just a few kilometers from the airport and a wide range of accommodations in downtown Mendoza, accessible by taxi, remise, Uber, or bus.

Luggage: There are no luggage storage facilities inside the airport, so you must keep your luggage with you at all times. The luggage wrapping service is located in the central hall on the ground floor.

Food and drinks: The dining options are mainly concentrated during peak hours, and many establishments reduce or suspend service during the early morning. If you plan to spend the night at the airport, it is recommended to bring some snacks and drinks purchased in advance, either inside the airport before the stores close or in the city.

Restrooms and showers: Public restrooms are available throughout the night in the main areas of the terminal. Showers are located inside the VIP lounge, accessible only to those who enter the lounge during its operating hours.

Wi‑Fi: The airport offers free and unlimited Wi‑Fi service in the main areas of the terminal.
