In a meeting with the Undersecretary of Public Works, Lucas Palacios; the Undersecretary of Tourism, Mónica Zalaquett; the mayor of Puerto Natales, Fernando Paredes, parliamentarians and representatives of development and tourism of Magallanes, JetSMART announced that they will begin operating flights to Puerto Natales, from December to March, functioning as a seasonal route to meet the high demand of the summer season. In this way, JetSMART will offer three weekly flights, strongly betting on connecting and decentralizing the southernmost areas of Chile.
“Thanks to the hard work between the public and private sectors, the Puerto Natales airfield was enabled for commercial flights. At JetSMART, we are pioneers in developing regional connections, so this announcement represents an important materialization of our commitment to connect Chilean regions. During the month of July, we will announce prices that have never been seen before to travel directly to Puerto Natales during the summer season,” said Pedro Asenjo, Sales Director of JetSMART sales director.
Due to the seasonal difference in demand, the route will only be offered during the summer.
