An empty leg to Santiago,
if the sky lines up.

An empty leg to or from Santiago is a repositioning flight already on the schedule: the aircraft needs to reach another base or its next mission. These trips are offered at a reduced fare, often around 30% to 75% off a classic charter, in exchange for less flexibility on dates and routing.

On every enquiry, we systematically scan the sky for these opportunities. The goal: whenever possible, a more competitive quote, on price as well as on the aircraft category available.

Understanding the Price

What Determines the Price of a Flight to Santiago

Santiago is a continuous business hub: the mining sector (copper, lithium, molybdenum) generates international delegations throughout the year, with no significant downturn. Travel between Santiago and the northern mining districts, Antofagasta or Iquique, is often done by private jet for reasons of speed and discretion.

The inverted season is the second driver. The austral winter (June-September) attracts private skiers to the Andean resorts, while European slopes are closing. The grape harvests in the Maipo and Colchagua valleys (March-April) create a second oenotourism peak.

For transatlantic flights (Madrid, Paris, London), only an ultra-long-range aircraft offers non-stop service from Santiago. Booking early guarantees aircraft availability and avoids repositioning surcharges.

AIRPORT & PRIVATE SERVICES

Arturo Merino Benítez (SCEL): two long runways, controlled altitude

Arturo Merino Benítez is 15 km northwest of the city center, at an altitude of 472 m. Two parallel runways, 3,749 m and 3,800 m, are open to all aircraft up to ultra-long-range. The airport is open 24 hours a day.

An ILS, guidance for landing in low clouds, is installed on runways 17R and 17L. Each private flight requires a slot, a time reserved in advance.

Ground welcome

You land. Everything is already in place.

Upon Your Arrival

Customs in the private area, car at the foot of the aircraft. Las Condes or Vitacura: 20 to 35 minutes. Maipo Valley: 40 minutes by road, or 15 minutes by helicopter.
Door-to-door service

Your journey doesn't end on the runway

From SCEL, Las Condes and Vitacura are 20 to 35 minutes away via the express highway. The Maipo Valley and its wineries are 40 minutes to the southeast. The Andean ski resorts (Valle Nevado, Farellones) can be reached in 1 hour by road or 15 to 20 minutes by helicopter.

The slot, 48 to 72 hours in advance

Without this confirmed time, the flight cannot land. During the ski season in the Andes or during grape harvests, allow extra time.

We also land when visibility drops

Both runways have precision guidance and a GPS approach. A low ceiling does not close the airport for a qualified crew.

The arrival follows the Cordillera

The ANDES8 arrival trajectory bypasses the terrain from the east. In heavy traffic, this loop extends the approach. The flight remains the same. The time to the car may shift by a few minutes.

ECONOMY & BIZAV

Leading Mining Economy on the Continent

Chile is the world’s largest copper producer, and investment decisions for the sector are made in Santiago. Major mining groups maintain regional headquarters there, and their delegations regularly travel between the capital and the northern mining districts (Antofagasta, Calama, Iquique) by private jet, for reasons of speed and confidentiality.

Lithium, of which Chile holds the world’s largest reserves, adds a second rapidly growing business sector. The Bolsa de Comercio de Santiago is one of the most stable financial markets in South America, attracting institutional delegations throughout the year.

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know to arrange a private flight to or from Santiago, Chile, with Private Jets Connect.

01

How do I book a private jet to or from Santiago?

To book a private jet to or from Santiago, simply contact Private Jets Connect. Our experts are available 24/7 to help organize your tailored flight. We take into account your preferences, passenger count, preferred aircraft type and schedule to propose the best option — comfort, flexibility and discretion included.

02

Who can book a private flight to or from Santiago?

Private Jets Connect is your dedicated partner for private jet bookings to or from Santiago. As a specialized air charter broker, we give you access to our network of certified operators, personalized advice and end-to-end trip management from take-off to landing.

03

Is a slot reservation required to land at SCEL?

Yes, all private flights to SCEL require a slot, meaning a pre-coordinated time slot. Private Jets Connect reserves it via the accredited handler upon confirmation of your flight. During ski or harvest season, allow an additional 48 to 72 hours.

04

Can ski resorts be reached by helicopter from SCEL?

Yes. A helicopter positioned at SCEL can drop you off at Valle Nevado or Portillo in 15 to 20 minutes. The rotation is timed with your landing. During high season (July-August), book the helicopter at the same time as your jet to avoid unavailability.

05

What jet category is needed for a non-stop Santiago-Paris or Santiago-Madrid flight?

Only an ultra-long-range aircraft (Gulfstream G700, Global 7500, or Falcon 10X) can cover the 10,600 km to Madrid or 11,100 km to Paris non-stop. SCEL’s altitude does not impose any particular takeoff restrictions.

06

Does Santiago's altitude affect private jet performance?

At 472 m, the impact on performance remains limited. The two 3,800 m runways easily absorb the necessary margin. In the austral summer, heat can slightly extend takeoff distances, but without load restrictions under normal conditions.

07

Can one fly by private jet to the northern mining districts from Santiago?

Yes. Antofagasta (ANF) and Iquique (IQQ) are approximately 2 hours 15 minutes away by light jet or midsize from SCEL. These connections are common for delegations from mining groups who wish to avoid commercial connections and constrained schedules.

08

Are there any curfews or night restrictions at SCEL?

No. SCEL is open H24 with no established curfew. ILS procedures on runways 17R and 17L allow night approaches and approaches in low visibility. Operations remain subject to slots, including outside peak hours.
