Traffic authorities have warned of significant delays near La Plata due to a road incident.
The scale of the return is explained by CAME's numbers: the four-day holiday generated a real 34% increase in tourist spending, and Mar del Plata, the epicenter of the movement, closed with 158,775 visitors, making it the November long weekend with the highest attendance since 2010.
Milei used his social media to highlight the hotel occupancy rates during the long weekend.

Furthermore, the next major holiday is Thursday, December 25th, for Christmas, although the government is awaiting official confirmation on whether it will add a non-working day for tourism purposes to extend the holiday.
