Santiago’s main gateway is Comodoro Arturo Merino Benítez International Airport (SCL), the country’s primary international hub that typically handles long-haul and regional flights for full-service carriers and many low-cost operators. It’s about 20 km northwest of downtown Santiago, with travel times usually around 20–40 minutes by taxi or app ride and roughly 25–40 minutes by the airport bus; fares often fall in a mid-range band for taxis and are low-cost for express buses. A secondary, smaller domestic field is less prominent for international travelers. Pros: modern terminals and numerous connections; cons: peak-hour congestion and occasional longer security lines. Public buses and shared shuttles are common budget options.

El Alto International (LPB) serves La Paz as the city’s main international gateway and high‑altitude hub, handling most long‑haul and regional carriers alongside some low‑cost operators. Situated about 13–16 km from downtown La Paz at very high elevation, travel to the city center typically takes 30–60 minutes by taxi or shared van depending on traffic; fares can vary widely but are often in the modest-to-moderate range relative to local costs. Public minibuses and airport shuttles offer cheaper options though they can be crowded and slower. Pros: comprehensive international connections and frequent services; cons: mountainous location and altitude can affect comfort and require acclimatization, and ground transfer times and prices are variable.
