John F. Kennedy International (JFK) is New York’s main international gateway and typically functions as the city’s long-haul and premium hub, with major global carriers and most transatlantic and transpacific flights. It’s about 15–18 miles southeast of Midtown Manhattan; travel time by AirTrain plus subway or Long Island Rail Road is usually 45–75 minutes and can cost roughly $10–$35 depending on rail choices and transfers. Taxis or rideshares often take 35–70 minutes with fares varying by traffic and tolls. Pros: extensive long-haul route network and amenities; cons: can be busy and subject to delays and higher on-site prices. LaGuardia Airport (LGA) primarily serves domestic and near-international flights and is often positioned as the convenient, cost-conscious option for short-haul travel. Located in Queens about 8–10 miles from Midtown, it’s commonly reachable in 20–40 minutes by taxi or rideshare, or 30–60 minutes by public transit with an AirTrain-to-subway or bus connection; fares for transit are usually in the single digits, while ride fares depend on traffic. Pros: closer to Manhattan and quicker for domestic trips; cons: fewer long-haul options and can feel crowded during peak times. Newark Liberty International (EWR) sits across the Hudson in New Jersey and often functions as a major international and transcontinental hub for several legacy carriers. It’s typically 15–20 miles from Midtown Manhattan and commonly reached by NJ Transit or Amtrak via the AirTrain in about 30–50 minutes, with fares generally in the $15–$30 range depending on service; taxis and rideshares may take 30–70 minutes with variable pricing. Pros: strong mix of international and domestic flights and frequent rail links; cons: distance in another state can add border-crossing time and occasional congestion.

Santiago’s main gateway is Comodoro Arturo Merino Benítez International Airport (SCL), the country’s primary international hub that handles most long-haul and regional flights and commonly serves full-service carriers alongside growing low-cost offerings. Located about 15–20 km northwest of downtown Santiago, transfer to the city center typically takes 20–40 minutes by taxi or ride-hail (fares often range from moderate to higher depending on traffic), while the recently extended Metro Line 1 plus complementary bus links can cut costs with journeys around 30–45 minutes. SCL is generally well-equipped with lounges, duty-free and dining options, but peak-hour congestion and occasional delays can affect comfort. For smaller domestic or specialty connections, some charters and general aviation use smaller nearby fields, which can be quicker but offer fewer amenities.

The minimum one-way ticket price from New York to Santiago is $330 (October 2026), while the maximum is $501 (July 2026). On average, a ticket costs $402–$817.
