The Iguazu Falls deal that we posted from Miami on early Friday morning (like 12:45AM early) also works from New York and Los Angeles for around the same price. Jamison from Points Summary and The Real Mitz on Twitter found these yesterday afternoon. Thanks for the heads up guys. Appreciate the tip!
This fare is not searchable on ITA, so we cannot provide exact fare rules or exact pricing. Based on spot checks (we cannot possibly check every date combination), prices are around $500. We seen it as low as $440 and as high as $540.
Sample Travel Date:
- Sample from New York
- September 16th – 23rd
Fare Availability:
- We found availability from September – December.
How to Search for Availability:
- Use the +/-3 date function Orbitz. It isn’t on ITA unfortunately, so finding it can be a pain.
Fare Class:
- Unknown.

Mileage:
- 13,464 miles or 3.3 cents per mile. LAN is a member of the Oneworld alliance and American partner. As far as we know, there isn’t a fare class with LAN that does not earn 100% mileage with American on US – South American segments and at least 25% mileage on the intra-South American segments. Assuming that, this sample routing will earn 11,011 miles or 4.0 cents per mile.
- From New York, the maximum mileage accrual on American will be taking the JFK – SCL nonstops.
- From Los Angeles, going via LAX-LIM is not a bad option as it is over 8,000 miles roundtrip.
