Arturo Merino Benítez International Airport (SCL) serves Santiago as the country’s main international and connecting hub, handling most long‑haul and full‑service carriers alongside several regional airlines. It’s located about 17 km northwest of downtown Santiago, with travel times typically ranging from 25–45 minutes by taxi or ride‑hail depending on traffic; shared shuttles and the Mendoza‑bound buses can be slightly longer but usually cheaper. A new rail link and express bus services may alter transit times and fares, which are generally perceived as mid‑range for South America. Pros: comprehensive international connections, modern facilities; cons: peak‑hour congestion and longer transfers for domestic feeder flights.

John F. Kennedy International Airport (JFK) serves as New York’s primary international gateway and a major hub for full-service carriers, typically hosting transatlantic and long-haul flights as well as domestic services from legacy airlines. Located about 16 miles (25 km) southeast of Midtown Manhattan, travel times to the city center can range from 30–75 minutes depending on traffic; options include the AirTrain plus subway or Long Island Rail Road (roughly $7–$15), shared shuttles and taxis (about $60–$80 flat fares to Manhattan), and ride-hailing services. Pros: extensive international routes and amenities; cons: can be busy with longer transfer times and variable road congestion. LaGuardia Airport (LGA) is typically positioned as New York’s main domestic and short-haul airport, favored by budget-conscious and legacy carriers for U.S. and Canadian routes. Located about 8 miles (13 km) from Midtown Manhattan, ground transit is usually 20–45 minutes by taxi or rideshare (fares varying by time of day) and around 35–60 minutes using buses plus subway connections for lower-cost options (fares generally similar to local transit). Pros: closer to Manhattan, convenient for short hops; cons: fewer international flights and historically more limited amenities and space, though ongoing upgrades aim to improve the experience. Newark Liberty International Airport (EWR) functions as a major international and transcontinental hub often used by both legacy carriers and some low-cost airlines, serving passengers for the New York metro area from New Jersey. It sits about 16 miles (25 km) southwest of Midtown Manhattan, with transit choices including NJ Transit or Amtrak via the AirTrain to Newark Liberty (typical combined fares around $10–$20) and direct buses or taxis/ride-shares (taxi fares to Manhattan often around $70–$90 depending on traffic). Pros: strong international connectivity and frequent flights; cons: can be less convenient for parts of NYC compared with LaGuardia and sometimes affected by road congestion and airport transfers.
