What happens when you set this watch
We track every fare from your airport into Punta Arenas for November 1 to February 28, 2027, round trips of 3 to 6 nights, across every airline. The moment one drops, you get one email with the dates, the price and a link to book. Free, and you can stop any time.
Know before you go
- Landings are about an hour; there is no shelter on the island.
- Bring a windproof layer even on a sunny day.
- Boats leave from Punta Arenas or from Tres Puentes, about ten minutes from the airport; the crossing takes one to two hours.
