South America Deals: Toronto to Peru or Chile or Argentina - $667 to $766 roundtrip including taxes
21
May
If you've ever wanted to visit South America, today would probably be a very good day to check the airfare prices.
There seems to be a few unusually good prices to some South American destinations from Toronto today, on a variety of airlines (mainly involving Air Canada, LAN, and Aeromexico).
My pick:
It can tough to decide between Peru and Chile, but I may have to give the nod to Chile.
Chile rarely goes on sale (usually $1200+ from Toronto), and there's many great months to visit. November & December for the Patagonia area (summer in the southern hemisphere).
And late September to mid November for Santiago (spring time).
All of which fall in line with the months available for this deal.
If you go with Peru, you may wish to focus on September or October. It's not as much fun to climb Machu Picchu in November & December when the rainy season begins.
Toronto to Lima, Peru (LIM) - $667 to $740 CAD roundtrip including taxes

Toronto to Santiago, Chile (SCL) - $732 to $766 CAD roundtrip including taxes
An amazing price to Chile, considering the typical bottom price is usually around $1200. Chile pretty much never goes on sale.

Airlines involved: Air Canada, Alaska Airlines, LAN, Aeromexico

Heads up: When you get to Kayak, there will be a lot of different flight choices. Some of them involve overnight stays, so watch for that. Often, there are faster flight choices for only $20-$30 more than the first one displayed.
If you adjust the 'Flight Leg' slider on the left hand side of Kayak down to 15 hours, you may find some very fast flights for just $783 on certain date combinations.
Example searches:
Nov 3 - 13 - $765

Toronto to Buenos Aires, Argentina (AEP) - $757 CAD roundtrip including taxes
Other than a mistake fare in 2011, I believe this is the lowest I've ever seen Toronto - Buenos Aires go. The flights are in and out of Buenos Aires AEP city airport (as opposed to EZE, the international airport).
When: Available dates seem really limited. I'm mostly finding them in late August, September, and late October 2015.
Airlines involved: TAM
How: search on Kayak and click through to Expedia
Example searches:
Multi-City Deal: Toronto to Santiago, Chile and then to Buenos Aires, Argentina and then back to Toronto - $853 for all 3 flights!
It looks like Air Canada is now offering some amazing multi-city deals, where you can visit Argentina *and* Chile for just $855 after taxes, including the flight between Buenos Aires and Chile. I've definitely never seen anything like this before.
When: November 2015 to mid-December 2015
Airlines involved: Air Canada
How: search on Google Flights and click through to Air Canada to book.
Heads Up: In most cases, you can either do Chile first. or Argentina first. The flights between Toronto and Chile are non-stop. Between Toronto and Argentina, they have 1 stop.
Example searches:
(these example searches are for a 2 week trip, spending one week in Argentina and one week in Chile. It is possible to find longer trips by mixing and matching the departure/return dates from the various examples below.
For example, if you modify the dates on Google Flights to Nov 05 to Nov 11 to Nov 25 it will work as well).
