Comodoro Arturo Merino Benítez (Andrés Sabella) — Antofagasta's main airport is a medium-sized regional gateway handling domestic flights and a few international connections, often serving full-service carriers and local budget airlines alike. Located about 10–15 km north of the city center, it can be reached in roughly 15–30 minutes by taxi or shuttle; buses and ride-hailing services are also available with fares typically lower than private transfers. Travelers can expect a straightforward, functional terminal with basic amenities—convenient for quick connections but not as large as major international hubs. Pros: close to town and efficient for domestic travel; cons: limited long-haul options and fewer lounge or dining choices compared with larger airports.

Santiago’s main air gateway is Comodoro Arturo Merino Benítez International Airport (SCL), the country’s primary international hub handling most long-haul and regional flights and serving carriers like LATAM, Sky Airline and JetSMART. It sits about 16 km northwest of downtown Santiago, with travel times typically around 20–40 minutes by taxi or ride-hail depending on traffic, and roughly 30–45 minutes by the airport express bus (fare ranges commonly fall in the low-to-mid single-digit USD equivalent). SCL offers a full range of passenger services and lounges but can be busy at peak times; public transport is affordable but may feel less convenient for luggage. For budget travellers, some low-cost carriers operate out of secondary terminals within the same complex, which can mean simpler facilities and sometimes lower fares.

The cost of a one-way flight from Antofagasta to Santiago ranges from $41 (November 2025) to $42 (October 2025). On average, the ticket price is about $42–$42.
