Has anybody done the Buenos Aires to Iguazu post or pre cruise extension. The question is what do you do with the excess baggage that you bring with you for the cruise and the domestic airlines only allow 20 kilos (22lbs) per person. Has anybody used a shipping company or do you just pay $12.00 per kilo excess baggage that the airlines down there want. Called princess executive office and they checked. They called me back and they said they have no plans in place to transfer luggage from Buenos Aires to Rio De Janeiro. Fedex and UPS want $1500.00 for 3 bags each at 50lbs.  Can anybody help with this problem.

Al, it looks like you have two choices:  bite the bullet and pay to ship the luggage;  or pack considerably lighter.

We will be flying from Buenos Aires to Iguazu then to Rio De Janeiro, not back to Buenos Aires. That is the problem.
