Links marked Ad pay us a commission if you book, at no extra cost to you; most pay nothing, and what a site pays never decides whether it is listed or where. How we rank

Your own plan's EU roaming may already cover this.
Renting a pocket Wi-Fi is the other common way to stay connected.
These are sites people in book with. Each opens in a new tab, on the site's own pages.
Month by month from Brussels
No fare history on BRU–SCL yet, so this ranking is climate and crowds only. The price column fills in as the scanner collects.

Rain days are the days with at least 1 mm of rain, as a weather station counts them.
Crowds is a score out of 100 where higher is quieter. It counts public-holiday clusters in BE as well as at Santiago, which is why this table differs from the same one read from another country. A busy month is a crowded one, not a bad one — usually it is crowded because the weather is good. Crowds alone never make a month “avoid”: that is reserved for weather worth skipping.
How busy it gets
The year in Santiago
Santiago experiences a Mediterranean climate with dry summers and wet winters. It may be wise to check for local events or festivals that could impact travel plans.
| Busiest |
mid Dec to late Feb — This period coincides with summer in Santiago, attracting tourists for its warm weather and outdoor activities.
|
|---|---|
| Quieter, still good |
early Sep to late Nov — These months see relatively mild weather and fewer tourists, making it a great time for a quieter visit.
early Mar to late May — Late summer into autumn offers pleasant temperatures and lower crowds before the winter season.

Written by a language model from the climate figures above. The month-by-month table is measured — ten years of ERA5 readings and published holiday calendars — and where the two disagree, the table is the one to believe.
