Going there for a couple of weeks in June. Yes, I know it's their Fall/Winter season but wanted to know if there's anything above and beyond the basics.

Leaving out of Bush Intercontinental (I think, the flight hasn't been booked yet) in Houston.

I just wiki'd Chile and read some things there though no expected temperatures during the time I will be there. I guess what I am looking for is what to expect culturally. Also, how long is the flight? When I've flown to Panama it was a 4 hour flight. I am expecting this one to go 10 to 12 hours. Ugh.

The flight out of dallas is 9 hours and 20 to 40 min depending on the head wind. I think you will like it, the people are great. Be sure to drink the wine

Cool, thanks for the info. Too bad I don't think they're gonna spring for first class tickets. I hate flying. But this will be one adventure I am sure.

I've been to Chile many times, +30 for work. Private message me and I'll send you a phone number to call me.

Nice, still hidden gem in South America.

Sorry, no I did not go. Work conditions derailed my trip to Chile. I really wanted to go though.
