Questions
How long is the flight from Buenos Aires (Ezeiza) to Fort Lauderdale?

How far is Buenos Aires (Ezeiza) from Fort Lauderdale?
7,144 kilometres in a straight line over the earth's surface — 4,439 miles or 3,857 nautical miles. Actual flown distance is usually 2–5% longer because aircraft follow airways, avoid weather and route around restricted airspace.
Is there a non-stop flight between EZE and FLL?
This page calculates the direct-line time and distance; it does not track airline schedules. At 7,144 km the route is comfortably within range of a non-stop service if an airline chooses to fly it. Check an airline or booking site for what is actually scheduled.
What should I expect on a 9h 18m flight?
Anything past six hours is a long-haul flight: expect at least one meal service, a significant time-zone shift, and enough sitting that circulation and hydration start to matter. Cabin altitude, dry air and disrupted sleep do more damage to a training routine than the flight itself.
