Is it cheaper to buy a plane ticket from ARI to Arturo Merino Benitez Airport (SCL) last minute?

If you take a wait-and-see approach, flights could also be booked out or the best seats gone (because no one wants the middle seat). If you don't want to risk it, book well in advance of when you want to leave. In fact, Expedia has some of the biggest deals up to 12 months in advance. If your favorite carrier hasn't released its airfares yet, check back regularly as deals are updated on Expedia constantly.
