[Expired] [Deal Alert] NYC to Santiago for $2,095 in LATAM Business Class

Update:The offer mentioned below has expired and is no longer available.

It’s not every day we see cheap nonstop business class deals to South America, but today is such a day.

There is an excellent deal from New York (JFK) to Santiago (SCL) in business class — let’s take a look!

Fare Deal — Details

This deal is operated on LATAM’s nonstop route between New York and Santiago on the airline’s Boeing 787-8 aircraft. The seats are arranged in a 2-2-2 configuration versus the newer 787-9, which is in a 1-2-1 configuration.

Still, this is an excellent deal for the more than 10-hour flight between New York and Chile, so it’s still worth looking at, even with the less-than-ideal seat configuration.

You can play around with dates on Google Flights and book through LATAM. You’ll find cheaper rates if booking through an online travel agency (OTA), but we suggest booking directly through the airline if you need to change your reservation after purchase.

• Class: Business
• Routes: New York (JFK) to Santiago (SCL)
• Dates: August 2023
• Rates: As low as $2,095 round-trip (when booked through Google Flights)

Best Ways To Book

The cheapest deals appear to be available in August, so if you’re a spur-of-the-moment traveler, those dates should work for you.

Either way, once you’ve settled on travel dates, you’ll want to book your flight using a credit card that rewards you for travel purchases. Here are a few of our favorites here at Upgraded Points:

Final Thoughts
