September
Vancouver to Santiago, Chile | $798 roundtrip after taxes

Torres del Paine, Chile

Santiago, Chile is one of those destinations that never really seems to go on sale, and most people will usually end up paying at least $1250 after taxes for a round-trip flight from Vancouver. Flying from Seattle doesn't help, as the prices are usually pretty similar to what they are from Vancouver on this route.

But TAM Airlines just significantly dropped their price between Vancouver and Santiago (SCL), undercutting their closest competition by over 35%.

The fares look to be available on a fairly large variety of dates, between October 2013 and December 2013., along with March 2014 and April 2014. January 2014 and February 2014 look to be slightly more expensive (high $800s).

As far as weather in Santiago goes, September to November is a nice time to visit (spring time in the southern hemisphere). Their summer season is December to February.

For the very southern part of Chile, November through March is best. For hiking around Torres del Paine, September through November has the ideal spring weather.

The crowds usually start to ramp up in December and continue through March, as this is their summer season, and when a lot of locals do their traveling, just as we do in our summers here.

So with that in mind, Here are some example searches on Kayak to get you started. You can click through from Kayak to various booking sites to book the tickets.

Note that the flights connect in Toronto and Sao Paulo each way. This is not the most direct of routes, and is about 6 hours longer than the fastest possible flights between Vancouver and Santiago (such as a 1 stop flight connecting in Dallas).
