Hours of Santiago Airport?

[MeganG22]

Hey everyone!

Just wondering if anyone can provide any insight here... After being in Santiago for many days, I am leaving tomorrow morning on a 6:45am flight. Since the bus doesn't start running until 6am, I figured I would just take the midnight bus up there tonight and just hang out....

I know not much AT the airport will be open, but my main question is will the airport itself even be open? Will I be able to find a quiet corner to curl up in and not be stuck outside? I am also very close to just checking in at the San Martin and cabbing it in the morning Any thoughts would be great!

Off to hang out at Pilgrim House for a while- such a wonderful place! And I was lucky enough to meet Ivar there last week just by chance! Those Camino moments, I'm telling ya...

Sorry I don't know about the airport but as the last bus leaves the city at 23:30 and you have to be able to check in some hours before your flight I imagine that it may well be open. As regards Ivar, Isn't he a lovely man! I always make a point of going to see him to thank him for the daily gift he gives us. He and John are up for a coffee if you find them and ask.

Nice to have met you as well!

Regarding the airport, I would maybe think of getting a taxi (to avoid spending the night at the airport). A taxi from the city center to the airport is €21,- (fixed rate).

Thanks Ivar! After posting and pondering, I went ahead and checked back into my albergue Thank you for the advice! Definitely think it's the best option.

I think the airport security as well as tax free area are closed at nights and will open at 6 am.
